The 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) clash between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad saw a major controversy on Wednesday (April 9) with tempers flaring after Riyan Parag's dismissal.

The Royals' vice-captain was looking in solid touch and set for a big score before Kulwant Khejorliya got his wicket on debut for the Titans. Parag appeared to edge a delivery to wicket-keeper Jos Buttler and was given out by the on-field umpire. However, the 23-year-old immediately asked for a review. Parag ended up costing RR a review after a spike was seen on the replays.

However, the Indian all-rounder was not pleased with the decision and lost his cool at the umpire. Parag seemingly claimed that the ultra edge was detecting noise from the ball hitting the ground instead of an edge.

Talking about the match, Sanju Samson won the toss and chose to bowl first. The home side posted a huge score of 218 on the board. Sai Sudharsan was the star of the show, with a knock of 82 in 53 balls. Both Jos Buttler and Shahrukh Khan made 36 runs each. Rahul Tewatia gave GT a quick finish with a 12-ball 24.

In reply, RR made a poor start after losing the wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Nitish Rana in the powerplay. Parag's knock gave RR hope of a comeback, but they again lost two quick wickets as Dhruv Jurel (5) failed to leave an impact.

Sanju Samson kept RR alive in the game with a knock of 41 in 28, but the RR skipper failed to make a big knock. Shimron Hetmyer's half-century proved a case of too little too late.

Talking about Parag, he is yet to score a half-century this season but has played some impressive cameos. The youngsters played in the first three games of the season in which they lost two and won one.
