A top edge that sailed over the Mumbai Indians wicket-keeper and rushed to the boundary is how Riyan Parag finished off the match for the Rajasthan Royals.
The 22-year-old batter, with his unbeaten knock of 54 off 39, helped the Royals chase down the meagre 126-run target Mumbai had set up in their Indian Premier League match, at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday.
The Royals got to the total with six wickets and 27 balls to spare to mark a convincing win. A triumph that was fashioned by an all-round performance with the bat, ball and in the field.
Sanju Samson won the toss for the visitors and opted to bowl first. It was a decision that saw Trent Boult rip through the Mumbai top order in his first two overs. Nandre Burger joined in with two wickets before Yuzvendra Chahal put up an astonishing bowling performance that saw him pick up three wickets for just 11 runs in four overs.
The Royals restricted the hosts to 125/9. And though they did stutter in the chase, Parag’s solid innings helped them get over the line, and to the top of the IPL table with three wins from three so far this season.
