Royal Challengers Bengaluru mentor Dinesh Karthik has heaped praise on Yash Dayal’s work ethics after they claimed a two-run win against Chennai Super Kings at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru in the ongoing IPL 2025 on Saturday.
Dayal was able to defend 15 runs in the final over against CSK against MS Dhoni and a well-settled Ravindra Jadeja. The left-arm pacer was hit for a six by Shivam Dube on the fourth ball, which was also a waist-high no-ball. However, Dayal bounced back strongly and nailed his yorkers to help his team bag a thrilling win.
Karthik revealed that Dayal works hard on his craft behind the scenes and always comes up with a plan against the opposition.
Karthik said after the win, “Good choice of word there – work ethic. He is right up there with some of the best that are there in India, the one thing that you see with the young crop of cricketers is how much they work hard behind the scenes, Yash is someone who is very diligent, comes to meeting with a paper and writes down everything what he wants to do, the execution might be up and down at times but one thing you will not get less from him is effort. He always has a plan, he has got a special skill and that is one of the reasons we retained him.”
The former RCB wicket-keeper bat said Suyash Sharma has played an instrumental role in Krunal Pandya’s success.
He added, “I think wrist spinners are worried that they will get hit, but Suyash’s name might not be there in the wickets column but his work has helped Krunal Pandya pick wickets.”
Karthik said it was a collective team effort after they clinched their eighth win of the season to move close to the playoffs.
DK concluded, “It will take a humongous effort to stop them scoring runs that were left in the last over, Yash being Yash, the way he delivered was outstanding. It was a good team effort.”
Royal Challengers Bengaluru will next take on Lucknow Super Giants at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow on Saturday.
