WATCH: Jimmy Neesham nearly got hit in the face while bowling to Riyan Parag in the nets
Riyan Parag smashed a Jimmy Neesham delivery back at him with the New Zealand star just about taking evasive action.
In an Instagram story posted by James Neehsam himself, we got a glimpse of a Rajasthan Royals net session where Jimmy Neesham was nearly struck down by a Riyan Parag drive. Just as the fans were wondering what Neesham was trying to convey, Neesham once again shared another slide on his Instagram story where he finished what he was saying by telling that he is about to retire from bowling to Riyan Parag in the nets.
He shared a video/gif on his second slide where we can clearly see how hard the ball was hit by Parag which took Neesham by surprise. It was also shocking to see that the ball had just missed Neesham's head due to the amount of force with which Riyan Parag struck it.
Even though this was shocking and very dangerous, Neesham gave it a funny spin and Neesham would still continue to bowl in the nets.

On the other hand, when it comes to their franchise, The Rajasthan Royals are doing pretty good in this year's TATA IPL with them securing 2 wins out of the three matches being played. Riyan Parag has been involved in all of the matches while Jimmy Neesham waits on the bench to get the right opportunity in order to produce some brilliance with both bat and the ball
