Riyan Parag was in ominous touch on Saturday (September 21) while playing for India A in Match 6 of the Duleep Trophy 2024 at Rural Development Trust Stadium, Anantapur. He made 73 runs off 101 balls, with five fours and one six before Ruturaj Gaikwad took a spectacular catch that left everyone in awe.

In an attempt to attack Gaurav Yadav, Parag came down the attack to slash it over wide mid-off, where Gaikwad was placed. However, the CSK skipper did not give up, and kept looking at the ball before throwing his hand in air in perfection to pluck a catch out of nowhere.

While Parag was in complete disbelief after watching Gaikwad take a screamer, the latter pointed his finger in air to confirm it was cleanly taken. Therefore, the Rajasthan Royals star batter had to return to the pavilion without getting a well-deserved hundred.
