Rajasthan Royals (RR) young middle-order batter Riyan Parag is suffering from his bad form in the 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). So far, Parag has scored only 54 runs in five matches of the tournament at a strike rate of 112.50, due to which he ended up losing his place from RR’s playing XI in the last 2 matches.
Meanwhile, Parag has recently shared a video of himself on Twitter, in which he is seen sweating profusely. In this video, Parag can be seen hitting some big shots against RR bowlers in the nets including their bowling coach and former legendary bowler Lasith Malinga. However, the video of the 21-year-old player came at a time when he has been dropped from the team in matches against Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings of Rajasthan. Parag also wrote a quote in the caption, which says, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Blinkers on!!"

Fans advised Parag to learn from Dhruv Jurel
Recently, the young right-hander was seen struggling to score runs in an IPL match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). The team needed 51 runs from 29 balls, and Parag had a great chance to become the hero by taking his team to victory but he failed and remained unbeaten on 15 off 12 balls and the team lost the match by 10 runs. RR showed a lot of faith in him but he is constantly disappointing the management by his poor performance and it won't be wrong to say if the franchise decides to release him next year.
Meanwhile, Parag is unlikely to get another chance as another youngster Dhurv Jurel has grabbed the opportunity with his both hands and produced a brilliant performance against CSK on Thursday, April 28 where he played an amazing knock of 34 runs off just 15 deliveries which included 3 fours and 2 sixes. After this knock, fans advised Parag on social media to learn something from Jurel.
Here's how fans reacted:
