Rajasthan Royals youngster Rayan Parag is one such player who is popular for his unique way of celebration. After taking a catch near the boundary line, the 19-year-old player from Assam celebrated the dismissal with a ‘selfie’ celebration' with his teammate Rahul Tewatia. Fans were in complete awe of Riyan Parag's brilliant fielding effort and the celebration that followed thereafter. After taking the catch, Parag ran towards his leg-spinner Rahul Tewatia and they both posed for a fake selfie using the ball as the camera. Before Cummins, Parag had also grabbed a catch of KKR’s top scorer Rahul Tripathi and celebrated the wicket in the same manner. Riyan Parag also has some very innovative celebrations in his stock.
