Rajasthan Royals will be looking to register another win when they host Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Saturday. They will be heading into this contest after a thrilling three-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders on Thursday.

Prior to their game against the 'Orange Army', three of their star players decided to have some fun, and they did so by testing their bowling skills. Well, not the bowling in cricket but the indoor sport.  Young all-rounder Riyan Parag, who has been making a huge impact for Rajasthan Royals since the last few matches, also decided to chill out at the bowling arena. However, the strange thing about this was that instead of focussing on the target, the youngster turned around, bent down and released the ball. Surprisingly, the ball found the target perfectly as all the pins were knocked down. The 17-year old then did a break dance as his team-mates could not control their laughter. Parag then clapped for himself, came back to his team-mates as he carried on with his celebrations.

This unmissable video of Riyan Parag's bowling skills was posted on Twitter by RR with the caption, "Kyunki dekh kar toh koi bhi maar sakta hai! Who's got the bowling skills in your group? #HallaBol." Watch the video here.

Riyan Parag had scored a match-winning 31-ball 47 at a strike rate of 151.61 in the last game against Kolkata Knight Riders and brought Rajasthan Royals to the cusp of victory. He was given out 'Hit-wicket' to Andre Russell after a lot of drama that was unfolded in the middle. The youngster from Assam has had an impressive IPL so far which is also his maiden appearance in the tournament. He has so far amassed 110 runs at a strike rate of 142.85 and has also picked up a wicket.
