The left-arm pacer of the Uttar Pradesh and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) side, Yash Dayal, has suffered a massive setback after the Jaipur POSCO court rejected his anticipatory bail pleas in the case of the alleged rape of the minor girl. The order by Judge Alka Bansal of the Jaipur Metropolitan Court stated that the material on record does not suggest that Dayal was falsely implicated.
The investigation indicated his possible involvement, which has led to Dayal not being granted anticipatory bail at this stage. The 28-year-old has picked up a total of 41 wickets in 43 innings of the league, out of which 13 wickets came in the previous season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 in 15 innings at an average of 36.15 and an economy rate of 9.59.

An FIR has been registered at the Sanganer Sadar Police Station in Jaipur, where the minor complainant alleged that the pacer lured her with promises of helping in her cricketing career, besides emotionally blackmailing her and raping repeatedly over the last 30 months, including at the hotels in Jaipur and Kanpur.
Yash Dayal's bail plea rejected on POSCO case
Dayal’s lawyer, Kunal Jaiman, argued that he only met the girl in public places but was never alone in that moment. She presented herself as an adult and took the money from him, citing the financial problems, and then kept demanding more. The case has been filed to harass. The defense has also claimed that a related case in Ghaziabad is part of the same allegation.
In reflection of the same incident, a police complaint has been lodged against the former captain of the RCB franchise, Virat Kohli, in Bengaluru in connection with the stampede case near the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, for which the ground was closed for nearly nine months.
Bengaluru will begin their campaign for the IPL 2026 against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. The Rajat Patidar-led side will look to make a strong start in defense of their title that they won last year against the Punjab Kings (PBKS).
