In a big blow for Rajasthan Royals (RR), their captain Riyan Parag has been ruled out of tonight’s match against Gujarat Titans (GT). Yashasvi Jaiswal revealed that Praga is not part of his playing combination for tonight’s game at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
Yashasvi Jaiswal is playing the match as the stand-in captain of Rajasthan Royals in place of regular captain Riyan Parag.
Why is Riyan Parag not playing against Gujarat Titans tonight?
Jaiswal told that Parag has a problem in his hamstring. In place of Riyan Parag, Rajasthan Royals team management has selected Shimron Hetmyer for the match against Gujarat Titans.
“We are going to bowl first. I think the wicket is quite good and we want to chase that. Ryan pulled his hamstring in the last game, so I think he will be back soon. Shimron Hetmyer comes in, and Yashraj Punja comes in. Those are the two guys who are coming in. I am really excited, looking forward to the game,” Yashasvi Jaiswal told the toss.
