Riyan Parag Flops Again In Duleep Trophy, Internet Says "Never Doubt Villains"

India A batter Riyan Parag had another poor outing with the bat in the ongoing Duleep Trophy, this time during the second round match against India D in Anantpur. After scoring 37 off just 29 balls in the first innings, Parag failed to convert a good start in the second innings, perishing to Saurab Kumar for 20 off 31 balls. He came out to bat with a positive intent smashing two sixes. However, his knock was cut shot due to a poor choice of shot on the final ball of the 69th over.

Parag miscued a shot as the ball hit the toe-end of the bat, and substitute fielder Aditya Thakare took a brilliant catch to end the former's stay in the middle.

Parag's flop show, however, sparked a huge debate on social media, with fans complaining that the youngster doesn't know how to convert his starts into a big knock.

Here's how internet reacted:
