Royals 57-2 (6 ovs) vs Titans 217-6 | Scorecard
Siraj to bowl his third over in the Powerplay. Parag shows intent as he hammers the length powerfully back over the bowler's head for a six.
He then takes a single to midwicket before Siraj bowls two superb yorkers forcing Samson to defend.
However, he misses his line as he dishes out a full toss which Samson flicks over midwicket for a four before he avoids the bouncer.
Parag dealing in sixes. He makes room before he whips new bowler Prasidh Krishna's first ball over midwicket for a six, a shot reminiscent of Dhoni's helicopter shot.
Parag has smashed 20 from eight balls, hitting three sixes, all over the leg side with similar shot off the pads.
He taps the next on the leg side for a single as Royals race past 50, in the sixth over.
Samson misses the pull as he is struck on the gloves for a single and Parag moves across but misses the scoop shot.
Prasidh bowls a cracking yorker as Parag is squared up with the ball going off the outside edge towards short thirdman. Surprising, that Prasidh appealed for leg before wicket.
The last ball is down the leg side as Parag easily glances it fine for a four.
Royals recover to 57/2 in six overs, with Parag stroking 25 from 12 balls and Samson hitting 21 from 14 balls.
