Fans Ask, Sanju Do You Have Any Hair On Your Head?: Last day, Rajasthan Royals announced the list of players they have retained. Ahead of the 2023 IPL mini-auction, the Royals have released their list of retained and released players.

But Rajasthan Royals have retained some players and the fans are also upset. Rian Parag is the main one. Parag was a below-average performer for Rajasthan Royals last year.
Parag, who was brought back into the team last season, has always been seen as being supported by the Rajasthan management. The player’s stats in IPL 2022 will not satisfy Royals fans.
The player scored only 183 runs at an average of 16.64 from 17 matches last season. IPL 2022 did not witness Rian Parag’s all-round performance even if the Rajasthan star was brought back into the team as an all-rounder.
Fans are making public their displeasure with the star being retained again despite his poor performance. They are asking why Rian Parag was brought into the team and whether the Rajasthan management and captain Sanju have lost their minds.
Rajasthan Royals retained Riyan Parag.

There are much better players than Riyan Parag in RR. Management has been kinder to him. But his contribution in RR is ZERO. I have been watching him since IPL 2019.
Even after playing 47 matches, he has not justified his place.
NOTE :- I am Rajasthan Royals Fan.

But there are fans who are optimistic about Parag’s impressive performance in the last Vijay Hazare Trophy and that he will be on fire this season.
Riyan Parag scored 117 in 84 balls with 10 fours and 6 sixes in Vijay Hazare Trophy.

Meanwhile, the team has also retained Devdut Patikal, who was expected to leave Rajasthan Royals.
There were earlier reports that the team might release the player. But the Rajasthan Royals kept the player by rejecting all those reports.
