Win Projections to be updated soon
The nation is rejoicing over India’s triumph in the 2024 T20 World Cup, but rookie player Riyan Parag and former fast bowler S Sreesanth are embroiled in scandal.
Sreesanth responded sharply to Riyan Parag‘s pre-tournament remarks regarding his lack of interest in watching the Men in Blue’s T20 World Cup matches, emphasising the value of patriotism in cricket.
After admitting that he didn’t watch the World Cup, Riyan Parag—who had just had an incredible IPL 2024 season in which he scored 531 runs for the Rajasthan Royals—found himself embroiled in the controversy.
Predicting the top four teams will be a biassed response, but to be completely honest, I don’t even want to watch the World Cup. I’ll be content no matter who prevails in the end. In an earlier interview that went viral on social media, Parag stated, “I will think about the top four and all of that when I play in the World Cup.”
When responding to Riyan Parag remarks made during the T20 World Cup 2024 final broadcast, the two-time World Cup winner didn’t hold back.
Additionally, several young people have declared that they will not watch the World Cup because they were not chosen. I would suggest that you should be a patriot first and then, sure, a cricket enthusiast. During the T20 World Cup 2024 final, Sreesanth, an ex-Indian cricket player, stated on broadcast that those who have chosen the side should have their wholehearted, unwavering support.

The former pacer underlined that new players should put their pride in their country above their own disappointments. He asked them to be fully supportive of the team and to fully respect the decisions made by the selectors.
Curiously, Riyan Parag has been called up for the first time by India for the forthcoming five-match Twenty20 International series against Zimbabwe, which begins on July 6. Under Shubman Gill’s direction, Parag will have the chance to establish himself on the global scene alongside Abhishek Sharma, Tushar Deshpande, and Dhruv Jurel.
