KKR vs RR IPL 2025: Rajasthan Royals (RR) captain Riyan Parag shared his disappointment following his team’s loss to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Sunday in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). Parag admitted feeling disheartened, believing he could have played a decisive role in securing victory for his team.
“I was just too sad about myself getting out. Probably a miscalculation from my side, I should have finished it. I think we could have found better options in the last six overs. I think they were 120 or 130, and our spinners did really well, and maybe we could have cut down their runs, but the game was in our hands,” Riyan Parag said in the post-match presentation.
You got to be perfect: Parag after KKR vs RR clash
Parag admitted a miscalculation while giving over to his bowlers. He also regretted not finishing the game, believing better options existed in the final overs.
“We should have finished this. [On bowling Madhwal when Russell was early in his innings] I didn't want to bow the bowl hunters one after the other, but now we may have done something else. We must give [Russell] Because the loan came in, took his time. It was surprising to watch the way of acceleration.
“It’s a ground where sixes are hit, so I knew I had my boundaries if I stayed. Wicket was gripping a little, and I had to pick my battles, but I felt I could have finished it. You’ve got to be clinical, you’ve got to be perfect, and we weren’t, so the consequences are here,” he added.
