Yash Dayal was acquired by the Gujarat Titans for Rs. 3.2 crores at the IPL’s super auction this year. His base pricing was just Rs. 20 lakhs, which was quite reasonable. Initially, the auction began with KKR and RCB bidding, with the Knight Riders opting out at a price of 75 lakhs. Gujarat soon joined in, and RCB and GT continued to play until RCB decided to withdraw at a cost of 3.2 crores. Finally, the Gujarat Titans were able to get the services of the left-arm pacer.
Yash Dayal’s net worth
The 24-year-old bowler has been actively participating in domestic cricket for a number of years, and this year he was also auctioned off for a hefty sum in the Indian Premier League. Based on his local cricket and IPL contracts, it is anticipated that Yash Dayal‘s net worth in 2022 will be around $1.5 million, or Rs. 11.44 crores INR in India.
Yash Dayal’s Professional Life
Yash Dayal is originally from the city of Prayagraj in the state of Uttar Pradesh. This little guy made quite an impression on everyone with his bowling skills on the local circuit. Few people are surprised that the pacer looks so much like former Indian fast bowler Zaheer Khan, and some have dubbed him “Zaheer Khan 2.0.”
In September 2018, he made his List A debut for Uttar Pradesh in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, which was held in New Delhi. The following month, Yash made his first-class debut for Uttar Pradesh in the Ranji Trophy season 2018–19. On 21 February 2019, he made his Twenty20 debut for Uttar Pradesh in the 2018–19 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, which was played in the United Arab Emirates.
Dayal was instrumental in the recent conclusion of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021-22, in which he ended as the seventh-highest wicket-taker with 14 wickets in seven games, enabling Uttar Pradesh to advance to the quarter-finals of the competition. He was also a member of India’s One-Day International (ODI) team for the series against the West Indies, serving as a backup. With the IPL just on the doorstep, we were expecting this speedster to unleash some devastating spells.
