Riyan Parag proves his mettle with imposing 174

Riyan Parag has encountered many detractors in his cricketing journey, especially after his participation in the U-19 World Cup, but the 21-year-old has served a timely reminder of his credentials in the ongoing 2022 VIjay Hazare trophy. Parag hammered 174 in just 116 balls in the quarter-final on Monday, November 28, at the Gujarat College Ground in Ahmedabad to orchestrate Assam’s quarter-final victory over Jammu & Kashmir. The youngster now has two centuries and two half-centuries in the tournament so far in 8 matches.
