Riyan Parag is one of the few cricketers from Assam to make a mark in domestic and international cricket. The all-rounder first impressed everyone at the under-19 level and then entered the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2019 as Rajasthan Royals (RR) handed him a deal.
Since then, Parag has been part of the Royals’ squad, donning the role of a finisher and cramming a few overs of spin bowling.
Here, you can check out Riyan Parag’s IPL career stats, records, and salary every season.
