Rajasthan Royals middle-order batter Riyan Parag showcased his big-hitting skills in the latest practice session of the preparatory camp ahead of IPL 2022. The talented youngster has had a few decent innings, but is yet to have a standout season in the IPL.

Parag played 11 games for Rajasthan last season and could muster only 93 runs at a dismal average of 11.63, with a highest score of 25. Despite his poor form in IPL 2021, the Rajasthan franchise continued to show faith in him and picked him for 3.8 crores at the IPL mega auction last month.

Rajasthan Royals IPL team recently commenced their preparation for the upcoming season of the IPL. The Royals gave their fans a glimpse of the training sessions by sharing a video on their Instagram handle. In the video, Riyan Parag looks to be in good nick, hitting some big blows with great timing.

The Rajasthan franchise shared the following post and captioned it:

Tick. Tick. Boom. 💥🏏 #RoyalsFamily | #TATAIPL2022 | @riyanhparag
