During the IPL 2023 season, Yash Dayal found himself in the spotlight, though not for the reasons he would have preferred. In a match against the Kolkata Knight Riders, Gujarat Titans’ left-arm pacer Dayal was targeted by Rinku Singh, who unleashed a series of boundaries. Rinku struck Dayal for five consecutive sixes, leaving both him and his team in shock. Compounding the situation, Dayal’s mother fell ill and refused to eat after the game. Despite this setback, Dayal did not falter. He has made a remarkable comeback, earning his maiden call-up to the Indian Test squad.
