Watch: Riyan Parag goes BALLISTIC after taking unreal catch to dismiss Shivam Dube

Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Riyan Parag came up with a staggering effort on the field during the ongoing game against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The match between the teams is taking place at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati.

Riyan Parag has been giving his best as captain as well as fielder in the game. The India National Cricket Team all-rounder has been spot-on with bowling changes and has also been putting pressure on the opposition with his field placements.

Riyan Parag also came up with a brilliant effort on the field and provided his team with the crucial breakthrough of Shivam Dube at an important time. The Chennai Super Kings all-rounder was removed by Wanindu Hasaranga in the 10th over as visitors came under massive pressure.

Wanindu Hasaranga bowled a full delivery that was fired through outside off. Shivam Dube drilled his drive to the right of extra cover, where Riyan Parag was stationed. Not only many expected him to take the catch but he came up with the magical effort.

Parag threw himself to the side of the ball and got fingertips under this ball that was traveling at the speed of knots. As soon as he took the catch, he extended his hands and soaked in the applause, running around in wild celebration.

Shivam Dube managed just 18 runs off 10 balls

Shivam Dube, who came as an impact player, couldn't make a big impact as the Chennai Super Kings batter managed just 18 runs off 10 balls. The left-hander batted with a strike rate of 180, slamming 1 four and 2 sixes in his innings.

But after his wicket, Chennai Super Kings came under massive pressure. Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad (63), who kept his team in the hunt with his half-century, also perished as the team was left reeling at 129 for five.

This was the first win for Rajasthan Royals in the ongoing IPL 2025 under the leadership of Riyan Parag

MS Dhoni (16) and Ravindra Jadeja (32*) gave some hope to Chennai fans with a late blitz down the order, adding 35 runs for the sixth wicket. With 20 needed in the last over, Dhoni got out as Sandeep Sharma held his nerves to win the game for Rajasthan by six runs.

This was the first win for Rajasthan Royals in the ongoing IPL 2025 under the leadership of Parag. The all-rounder won't be leading in the next game as Sanju Samson will be returning as a leader. The keeper-batter played as an impact player due to a finger injury.
