Parag, whose all-round abilities have been a talking point for some time now, made his IPL debut for the Rajasthan Royals in 2019. The 21-year-old has so far featured in 54 matches, managing 600 runs with a couple of half-centuries alongside a strike rate of 123.97. However, he has only taken 4 wickets.
Speaking on Clueless HARPAL's YouTube channel, Parag revealed:
"Virat Kohli is the biggest name in my phone contact, I recorded the whole call when we talked last time as I don’t want to disturb him. Whenever I feel I need any advice, I talk with him."
Virat Kohli to return for Asia Cup 2023 final after being rested for the final Super 4 match:
Meanwhile, the former Indian captain will return to the playing XI in the marquee Asia Cup final on Sunday against Sri Lanka in Colombo. The 34-year-old, who sparkled with a century against Pakistan, was rested against Bangladesh, with Tilak Varma batting at No.3.
Chasing a stiff 266, the Men in Blue fell short by 6 runs despite Shubman Gill's gritty hundred. Team India should be in a much better place as the likes of Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Kuldeep Yadav will also return to the fold.
