I will eventually represent India in cricket: Riyan Parag

The Assam batter's resolve has been reinforced by his non-selection in spite of a record-breaking year.Since the previous IPL, Riyan Parag's career has looked like this. In addition to becoming the Deodhar Trophy's top scorer, he also finished tied for third place in terms of wicket-taking. He hit the most sixes (23, ten more than Kerala's Rohan Kunnummal). Then, in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, a world record seven straight fifties were achieved, nearly propelling Assam to the T20 tournament final. He has now scored hundreds in two straight Ranji Trophy matches against Kerala and Chattisgarh. These absurd figures demonstrate the highest order consistency across formats, but what's maybe even more confusing is that Parag hasn't received a national call-up despite this.The belief that Parag isn't the most traditional character appears to be more hindering. He likes to give it back, whether it's on or off the field. The most recent event that has everyone talking was Parag's lavish celebration of hitting his second Ranji hundred, to which he has also responded on social media in a characteristically flamboyant manner."People are enjoying themselves while deciphering that and posting various interpretations (of his celebration).

I won't take that away from them," Guwahati resident Parag declared. "I think I have a clear vision. I play each game with the intention of having fun, and I am doing just that. He remarked, "I'm not thinking about the selections, the squads, the tours, or even who is doing what in the Ranji Trophy."In the 2019 Indian Premier League, Parag emerged concurrently with a group of gifted cricketers in the age group who were beginning to establish themselves. After getting off to a decent start with the Rajasthan Royals, Parag realized he needed to go above and beyond the typical cricketer to gain recognition at home."You always have to do twice as well as someone playing from a bigger state when you come from a state like Assam that people don't associate with cricket," he stated. Furthermore, it is true. There's no getting around that. Nothing negative can be said about it. You need to get five hundreds if someone else gets three hundreds. That is all there is to it.That's exactly what Parag has also been doing. Parag's outstanding form is likely one of the main reasons Assam has surpassed itself this year. To Parag's credit, he hasn't allowed his main task to be compromised by his role as a team leader. "I have communicated to the boys that you will not play cricket the way Assam did five or ten years ago when I am captain of the team. My responsibility is to help the team win games and score points.Leading while continuing to be the team's batting mainstay is a simple yet sophisticated combination that has already made Parag's season one to remember. "It is a huge moral win for me to be able to do what I have been doing," he declared. "This is unprecedented; you wouldn't anticipate such performances from a young Assamese child.

It's a first." I'm not taking it personally. But I feel satisfied with myself because I have worked so hard.Being passed over will therefore inevitably lead to self-doubt. However, Parag thinks this is a temporary obstacle. "I always have the belief that I will play for the country at some point in the future. I can't have that taken away from me. "I'm obsessed with that," he uttered. "However, I don't have a specific goal to score this many runs in the IPL or Ranji."But because the world hasn't fully realized how good he is yet, Parag has essentially walled himself off to concentrate only on his hitting. "I don't even watch cricket matches on television." I have been talking a lot about cricket and analyzing my game with my father, Zubin Bharucha, the director of performance for the Rajasthan Royals.
