SRH VS RR :- Riyan Parag will be guiding Rajasistan Royals from the front during their tournament opening against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday, SRH vs RR IPL 2025.

“An essential component of the royal set-up, Sanju Samson will continue to be a major bat contributor till he is cleared for wicketkeeping and fielding. Once totally fit, he will return as captain, the franchise said.
Leading the team from the front for the first three games against clubs like Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings in their backyard would be Riyan Parag.S
