Watch: Riyan Parag Underarm Ball in a bizarre incident in RR vs PBKS

Riyan Parag Underarm Ball: The IPL 2008 winners Rajasthan Royals (RR) are currently locking horns with the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the fourth match of IPL 2021 season. Rajasthan Royals newly appointed captain Sanju Samson has won an important toss at the batting-friendly Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai and has opted to bowl first. It has been an entertaining action as the Punjab Kings batsmen have made full use of the conditions so far.

Riyan Parag Underarm Ball

After losing the wicket of opener Mayank Agarwal early in the innings, Punjab Kings’ explosive batting duo of Chris Gayle and KL Rahul seemed to be in an exploding mood as they put up a brilliant partnership of 57 runs. In order to slow down the run-scoring, RR captain Sanju Samson decided to use Riyan Parag as the part-time option. However, in a bizarre incident, Parag came up with a round arm action and it almost looked like an underarm delivery to Chris Gayle in the 10^th over of the game.
