Riyan Parag vaping controversy: 'Two mistakes...', BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia breaks silence on incident

Firstpost
BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia confirms two mistakes in Riyan Parag’s IPL vaping incident and says further action is being explored.

Summary

Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag was fined 25 percent of his match fee and given a demerit point after being seen using a vape in the dressing room during a match against Punjab Kings in Mullanpur. BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia broke his silence on the controversy, acknowledging that two mistakes occurred and that the board took immediate action while exploring further measures. Parag admitted the breach of Level 1 of the IPL Code of Conduct, and the Royals were previously also in the spotlight this season when manager Romi Bhinder was fined and warned for using a mobile phone in the dugout. Parag later scored 90 off 50 balls against Delhi Capitals, but his team lost the chase despite posting 225/6.
