Riyan Parag (born 10 November 2001) is an Indian international cricketer who plays for the national team. He is a batting all rounder, who bats right-handed in the middle-order and bowls both right-arm leg spin and off spin. In May 2025, he became the first and only batsman to hit six consecutive sixes in the 17 year history of the IPL. He was a part of the team that won the 2018 U19 World Cup.

He plays for Assam in domestic cricket and Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League. Riyan is the second youngest player to score a 50 in the IPL after Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He is initially appointed as the captain of the Assam Cricket team for the historic tour of Namibia for the series of 5 unofficial 50 over one day matches hosted by Namibia against Namibia National Cricket team starting from 21 June 2025 to 29 June 2025. But, at the last moment, Denish Das, a 23 year old young promise from Assam is named to lead the Assam side as Riyan Parag is unavailable for this tour. He will have a busy schedule along with the national T20 side in this year such as Bangladesh tour, 2025 Asia Cup, India tour of Australia, South Africa tour of India etc. The venue for the unofficial series against Namibia is FNB Cricket Ground, Windhoek, the capital city of Namibia.
