Riyan Parag, the captain of the Rajasthan Royals, faced a significant controversy during an IPL 2026 match against the Punjab Kings on April 28. The Royals secured a six-wicket victory, but the focus shifted to Parag after a video circulated showing him vaping in the dressing room with teammates. This incident follows a previous breach by the franchise and is likely to trigger an internal review. Given the IPL's strict rules against smoking and the illegality of vaping in India under the PECA 2019 Act, Parag faces potential disciplinary measures from the BCCI and the IPL committee, which could include a fine or a match ban.
