The Royal Challengers Bengaluru team has been facing injury issues before the start of the new IPL season. In addition, the current issue with Yash Dayal has created a lot of buzz on social media. It looks like the team might release Yash Dayal before the start of the IPL 2026 season.
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru team created history by winning their first IPL title in 18 years. In the 2025 season, the RCB team, led by Rajat Patidar, defeated the Punjab Kings team, led by Shreyas Iyer.
Yash Dayal had a major role to play in the RCB team during the 2025 season. After being released from the Gujarat Titans team, Yash Dayal joined the RCB team and made a strong comeback. Earlier, Yash Dayal had a tough time as he was hit for five sixes in an over.

Under the guidance of Virat Kohli, Dayal had become a solid bowler, especially in the death overs. At times, he bowled in the same team as Bhuvneshwar Kumar, while the new ball was taken by Josh Hazlewood.
In the IPL 2025, Dayal took 13 wickets and contributed significantly to the success of RCB. However, after the tournament, there were issues with Dayal. He did not turn up for the first training session of RCB at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. In addition, the latest images of the team bus did not feature the bowler, and it has led to speculation that RCB might release him before the next season.
