Cricketer Yash Dayal has got a big relief from the court. Rajasthan High Court has put an interim stay on the arrest of accused Yash Dayal in the rape case. The single bench of High Court Justice Ganesh Ram Meena gave this order on Friday while hearing the anticipatory bail petition. Let us tell you that due to this case, Yash could not play in the last edition of UP T20 League, while Gorakhpur Lions had bought him for Rs 7 lakh. It is also difficult for him to play in IPL 2026.
Putting an interim stay on the arrest of Yash Dayal, the High Court ordered that Yash will fully cooperate in the investigation and he will have to remain present before the investigating agency. Yash has also been asked not to step back from cooperating in the investigation in any way. Further hearing will continue in this matter.
Yash Dayal has been away from cricket for 9 months
Yash Dayal’s performance in IPL 2025 was good, this season his RCB team became champion for the first time. In the final, Yash took 1 wicket in 3 overs and was also very economical, giving only 18 runs. But who knew that after this he would stay away from cricket. After the tournament, an FIR was filed against him in a rape case, which also affected his cricket career. Yash has not played any match after the IPL 2025 final.
Yash was bought by Gorakhpur Lions for Rs 7 lakh for UP T20 League 2025, but he could not play. News came that the cricketer accused in the rape case was banned from playing in the league. He has not played even in domestic cricket since then, so it seems difficult for him to play in IPL 2026. Although RCB has retained him.
