IPL 2023: Yash Dayal's condition reportedly 'not good', lost 7-8 kilos weight. Here's why

IPL has been going on in 2023 for a long time now, but the craze remains the same. In it, there have been some memorable moments like the Gujarat Titans vs Kolkata Knight Riders match, when KKR's Rinku Singh hit five consecutive sixes in the last over being bowled by Yash Dayal.

Gujarat Titans' Dayal is said to be unwell. The 25-year-old bowler has also reportedly lost 7-8 kgs weight, revealed Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandaya. Yash not only lost his place in the playing XI but also, according to reports, is not doing well mentally as well as physically.

During a post-match show on Star Sports, when asked about Dayal's chances of playing again this season, Hardik could not confirm anything and mentioned that Dayal's condition is not suitable for him to take the field at the moment. Hardik also stated that Dayal's absence might create an opportunity for someone else to shine. It will take a long time for Dayal to return to the field.


Last year, Yash Dayal had an impressive record of 11 wickets in 9 matches for the defending champions, but this year he has been struggling.

The left-arm pacer was unable to secure any wickets in the three matches he participated in, and had an economy rate of 15.83. The KKR match, in particular, had a significant impact not only on Dayal but also on his family.

After seeing her son being hit around the park by Rinku Singh, Dayal's mother stopped eating for a couple of days. However, Dayal's father, Chandrapal, has been a pillar of strength for his son and believes that he will come back stronger.
