Además de la controversia, Parag recibió una multa de INR 12 lakh para mantener una tasa excesiva lenta durante el encuentro RR vs CSK.
Riyan Parag, serving as Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) stand-in captain, faced criticism from social media users for his behavior, with many deeming his actions inappropriate for a cricketer representing India. The incident occurred after RR secured their first victory of the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) in their hometown of Guwahati, defeating Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by a narrow margin of six runs at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
Following the thrilling win, a video surfaced online that sparked outrage among fans. In the footage, Parag was seen clicking a selfie with ballboys appointed by the Assam Cricket Association but then casually tossing the phone back to them. Many viewed the act as dismissive and disrespectful, leading to backlash on social media platforms.
