New Delhi, Jun 11 (IANS): After a narrow defeat in April, rising cricket star Riyan Parag has called out one of Indias best CS:GO athletes to battle once again. Ankit Panth is one of Indias most popular gaming athletes going by the alias ‘V3nom.

"I learnt so many things. I learnt so many strategies that I can incorporate in my daily matchmaking," Red Bull Athlete Parag had said.
Having practiced what he learnt, the cricketer is ready to go for another round with CS:GO Frag Out 2.0, challenging Ankit's Team V3nom once again.
