In the IPL 2024 auction, Royal Challengers Bangalore has signed Yash Dayal for Rs. 5 crore.
After failing to land either of India’s premium fast bowlers, RCB had to land Yash Dayal in the auction, who has been infamous for conceding five sixes in five balls in IPL 2023.
RCB let go of Harshal Patel ahead of the auction and has now replaced him with the signing of Yash Dayal. The 26-year-old Uttar Pradesh bowler has so far played 14 matches and conceded 10 runs per over. He also has a modest wicket return, with just 13 scalps in 14 matches.
Though RCB announced on social media about how much improvement the pacer has made post-IPL 2023, social media has reacted hilariously after Dayal’s acquisition.
Former India player Dodda Ganesh shared his astonishment after RCB spent that huge money to sign Yash Dayal. Dodda wrote, “Any bowler can have a bad day. Yash Dayal too had one bad over. He is still a good bowler and had decent returns in the SMAT. However, spending 5 crore on him is simply ridiculous, RCB. My mind boggles.”
RCB’s replacement players for their previous squad have baffled the fans. One of the fans wrote, “Replacement of David Willey, Tom Curran Replacement of Harshal Patel: Yash Dayal Replacement of Hazelwood: Alzari Joseph; Replacement of Hasaranga: Mayank Dagar.” An angry RCB fan expressed his shock and anger towards the team owners for signing Yash Dayal for 5 crore. 5Cr for someone who gave 5 sixes in 5 balls! #YashDayal4Cr for #ShardulThakur We are not clowns; we are the whole circus for God’s sake. Please remove these two guys from RCB.
