Riyan Parag: A prediction made 782 days ago, was widely mocked, now Riyan Parag has proved it true..

Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag wreaked havoc in Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) home ground. He rained sixes in Eden Gardens, which instilled fear in KKR bowlers. In the match against KKR, he did the feat of hitting 5 sixes in an over. Along with this, Riyan Parag also proved his 782-day-old prediction correct, for which he was ridiculed a lot. However, he could not make his team win and RR had to face defeat by one run in a thrilling match.

5 sixes hit in Moeen Ali's over

Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder Moeen Ali would not have thought that a batsman could hit five sixes in one of his overs, but Riyan Parag came out to bat in a different mood and Moeen Ali became his target. During Rajasthan Royals' innings, Moeen Ali bowled the 13th over. Riyan Parag hit 5 sixes in this over. Moeen Ali gave a total of 32 runs in this over.

Even after this, Riyan Parag did not stop and in the very next over, he hit a six off Varun Chakraborty's ball and achieved the feat of hitting 6 sixes in 6 consecutive balls. In this match, Riyan Parag played a stormy innings of 95 runs with the help of 6 fours and 8 sixes in 45 balls. He missed out on scoring his century by just 5 runs. However, his innings did not work for the team and Rajasthan Royals lost the match by one run.

The prediction was made on 14 March 2023
Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag made a post on his social media 'X' on 14 March 2023, in which he wrote, "My conscience says that I will hit 4 sixes in an over in this IPL". At that time, there was a lot of mockery on his post, but Riyan Parag remained silent and he wanted to answer it with his bat only. After 782 days, on 4 May 2025, he made his prediction come true by hitting 5 sixes in an over against Kolkata Knight Riders.
