IPL 2024 went well for Riyan Parag. Although he had been playing IPL for many years, this time he got a new responsibility, which he lived up to. Captain Sanju Samson and the team management gave him the responsibility of number four and he scored 573 runs in 16 matches. His strike rate was 149.21, while the average was 52.09. He finished number three in the Orange Cap race. After this strong performance, he hopes that he can be selected for the Indian team. However, he also believes that if not now, then in the coming time he has to play for India.

Batsman Riyan Parag is confident of making it to the Indian team, as his confidence is at its peak while making this statement. Talking to PTI, he said, “At some point of time, you have to take me, right? So this is what I believe, I will play for India. I don't care when. Even when I was not scoring runs, I said in an interview that I will play for India. This is my belief in myself. This is not my ego. When I started playing cricket at the age of 10, this was my plan with my father. We were going to play for India at any cost.”

Parag said on this, “Whether it is the next tour, whether it is a tour after six months, whether it is a tour after a year… I don't really think about when I should play. This is the job of the selectors, this is the job of other people.”
