‘He fell ill and lost 7-8 kilos’: Hardik Pandya shares major update on Yash Dayal’s deteriorating health after getting hit for 5 consecutive sixes

Hardik stated that Yash Dayal may not play for the rest of the IPL 2023 season. 

The most exciting match of IPL 2023 so far has been between Kolkata Knight Riders and Gujarat Titans (KKR vs GT). This match was played on April 9, 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. In this match, hardly anyone will be able to forget the stormy innings of KKR batsman Rinku Singh. In this match, Rinku gave Kolkata an incredible victory by hitting five consecutive sixes in the over of Gujarat bowler Yash Dayal.

It has been more than two weeks since this match, but fast bowler Yash Dayal has still not forgotten it. There are reports that after taking 5 sixes from Rinku Singh, Yash Dayal’s health is deteriorating and along with that he has also lost around 7-8 kgs of weight. Hardik Pandya, the captain of Gujarat Titans, has disclosed this.

“I can’t confirm that (on his chances of playing again this season). He fell ill and lost 7-8 kilos after that match. There was a spread of viral infection during that period and also due to the pressure he had faced, his condition is presently not good enough to take the field. Someone’s loss is someone’s gain at the end of the day. It is going to take a long time before we see him on the field,” Hardik said during his interaction with Star Sports.

In his absence, Gujarat have turned to seasoned pacer Mohit Sharma, who has been phenomenal upon his return to the top-tier league.
