NEW DELHI: Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag lit up Eden Gardens with a breathtaking display of power-hitting during their IPL 2025 clash against Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday, smashing six consecutive sixes and sending the crowd into a frenzy.
After Andre Russell’s blistering 25-ball 57* powered KKR to a formidable 206/4, Parag took charge of the chase in sensational style.

The carnage began when KKR spinner Moeen Ali was brought into the attack. After Shimron Hetmyer took a single off the first ball of the over, Parag went berserk — hammering five sixes in a row to tear Moeen apart. The over went for a massive 32 runs.
In the very next over, bowled by Varun Chakaravarthy, Hetmyer once again rotated the strike early, handing the stage to Parag.
The RR skipper didn’t disappoint — switching his stance and launching a stunning reverse hit over deep backward point for his sixth consecutive maximum.
Despite Parag's fireworks, Rajasthan Royals are already out of contention for the playoffs, but the skipper’s fearless hitting was a reminder of the raw talent and entertainment the league thrives on.
Parag scored 95 runs off 45 balls, including 6 fours and 8 sixes, before being dismissed by Jofra Archer.
