Cricketer Yash Dayal In Trouble As Woman Files Complaint For Exploitation On Pretext Of Marriage
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Indian pacer, Yash Dayal, has been accused of exploitation on the pretext of marriage by a woman from Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad. The woman has lodged a complaint through the Chief Minister's online grievance portal, IGRS. In her complaint, the woman alleged that she had been in a relationship with the cricketer for the past five years, during which she was emotionally, mentally, and physically exploited. "For the last five years, the complainant was in a relationship with a cricketer. The man emotionally, mentally and physically exploited her by misleading her with the promise of marriage. He introduced the complainant to his family as their daughter-in-law, which made her trust him completely," the complaint stated.
The woman further alleged that when she confronted Dayal about the alleged deception, she was subjected to physical violence and mental harassment. "During the relationship, the complainant was made emotionally and financially dependent on him. Later, she found that the man was involved in similar relationships with other women as well," the complaint said.
She claimed to have reached out to the women's helpline number 181 on June 14, 2025, but said that the matter did not progress at the police station level. Owing to financial and social helplessness, she turned to the Chief Minister's office seeking justice.
"She has chats, screenshots, video calls, and photos etc as evidence," it added.
"The request is to investigate this matter promptly and impartially, and to take legal action against the accused. This step is important not only for her, but also for all girls who fall victim to such relationships," it concluded.
Notably, Yash Dayal was part of RCB's historic IPL 2025 title win earlier this month, taking 13 wickets in 15 matches. He has represented Uttar Pradesh in all domestic formats and is yet to make his India debut.

Moosa, 53, who previously served as the first-team assistant coach and reserve team head coach, has been appointed as the Technical Director of NorthEast United FC.

This arrangement serves the best interest of both club and country." Reflecting on his contract renewal, Moosa expressed, 'It means a lot to me to stay at this club for another two years.

IND vs ENG: 'Far too defensive' - Former India cricketer urges captain Shubman Gill to be more aggressive
Rishabh Pant with Shubman Gill (Getty Images) Former India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has weighed in on Shubman Gill 's captaincy in the wake of India's five-wicket defeat to England in the first Test at Headingley. While acknowledging Gill's composure and talent as a batter, Manjrekar cautioned the young skipper against being too defensive in his approach, especially when conditions are in India's favour. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Speaking on Star Sports' Game Plan, Manjrekar said Gill is 'sorted' as a batter at No. 4 and will only improve with experience. 'I just hope he can carry on after getting to a 108 or 120 because now he knows what could happen if he gets out. So that is something he will start doing,' he said. 03:11 India's Day 2 at the Nets in Edgbaston | IND vs ENG Test Series However, it was Gill's field placements and leadership that drew greater scrutiny. 'Overcast conditions, I know the ball wasn't doing too much, but they pre-empted the English approach and had a far too defensive field,' Manjrekar noted. 'I hate to bring Virat Kohli as a comparison because it's unfair on the young man, but you can just imagine Virat Kohli in that situation.' Poll Do you think Shubman Gill should adopt a more aggressive captaincy style? Yes, he needs to be more aggressive No, his current style is fine Maybe, depends on the situation Undecided 'Whether they would have got wickets or not, Kohli would have shown the opposition that he's trying to get them out. Gill is not that kind of personality, nor that kind of captain. But maybe don't go so defensive pre-empting things,' he added. Manjrekar also praised Rishabh Pant 's hunger and resilience, saying he is likely to carry his twin tons into the second Test. At the same time, he warned KL Rahul to maintain consistency. 'KL Rahul cannot be a one-hundred wonder or a one-Test-match performer. Indian cricket needs him badly,' he said. The second Test begins Wednesday at Edgbaston, with India trailing 0-1 in the five-match series. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story. Watch Episode 2 here.

Ayush Shetty upsets World No 6 Taiwanese, and plays a rally at 4-3 in decider that Americans will find hard to forget
A 39-shot rally, where Ayush Shetty playing against the inimitable Chou Tien Chen who never gives up, saw the Indian 20-year-old match the Taiwanese on the biggest un-calculable metric – heart. It helped the 6 feet-4 Shetty, make finals of the Super 300 Open after a 20-22, 21-15, 21-14 win, where he plays the hyper-glider Bryan Yang for the title later on Sunday. With finalists in both men's and women's singles – Tanvi Sharma,16 stomped on to set up a clash against Beiwen Zhang, 34 – India was on a resurgence at this American outpost, somewhere in mid central US, at Council Bluffs in Iowa. But at 4-3 in the decider, Shetty truly brought alive the slowly building crowd at a sleepy venue on a Saturday night. It was two men known for their sprawling defense, and there were at least 8 low pick ups inches off the floor in that rally in the third, after a set apiece. A fast paced rally where both Shetty and Tien Chen ended up bouncing off the floor – it had everything: the taut midcourt battle, steep down shots, drops defended by sliding on knees, returns on the reflex while getting up and recovery returns after being on all fours. It would end with Shetty levelling at 4-4, a symbolic catching up with the legend, as the comms guffawed and all they could say wisely was 'Still going.' Shetty seemed to have broken Tien Chen's resolve thereafter, as he raced to take the second and third sets 21-15, 21-14. But well before that, the Indian fourth seed playing the top seed, had frittered a 6-point lead at 17-11 in the opener and contrived to go down 20-22, after being 19-15 up. But that's just how the Taiwanese plays – he can assail any deficits and simply never gives in. 'Ayush kept his composure after losing that 6 point lead and the set,' coach Sagar Chopda said, adding his ward had been pulling out some tricky wins this whole week. This included Magnus Johannesen where Shetty won in straight sets after being 14-4 down, and then against former world junior champ, Kuo Kuan Lin, now 21. In the second he had gotten past fellow Indian talent Tharun Mannepalli. 'Ayush messed up a big lead today but proved he can come back and pull through from trailing by huge margins too against Magnus (who was coming off a title). Tharun had a good win against Frenchman Arnaud Merkle and Ayush had to play well. And he also won playing from the tougher side (faster),' Chopda said. Shetty had been 18-20 down before picking the first and sauntering to the second. Botching good leads however seems to inflict Indians of all levels – Shetty is World No 34 now. His coaches believe he's yet to learn the tricks of the trade – taking breaks at the right moments, and visibly rushing through points. But despite Tien Chen galloping from behind to take opener, Shetty did well to stay calm and impose the game that had originally given him the lead. Brian Yang, the Canadian is lined up next at 1 a.m IST in a reversal of the order from Taipei Open earlier this year, where Shetty had beaten Yang in semis and lost to CTC in the final. The US Open semis win was a sort of revenge extracted, but Yang despite being 0-2 in H2H is a tricky opponent. He crowds though he plays simple length badminton. But what the jack-in-the-box loves doing is jumping around court, sending down smashes at a fast clip. They aren't necessarily very incisive, but the volume can be a headache. He sprays them plenty from the overhead cross side but the sheer number of them can be extremely daunting to deal with. At Taiwan, Shetty had simply defended with patience and drawn out errors arising from the frenzy. But Yang also didn't have answers back then to Shetty's down the line attack which proved decisive. Yang can unleash body smashes that could get awkward for the Indian, but he has the answers at the net with dribbles.
