Yash Dayal knocked Rohit Sharma over in the IPL 2025 clash between the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Mumbai Indians (MI) at Wankhede Stadium on Monday, April 7. The left-arm pacer castled the MI opener after being punished for back-to-back boundaries.

The dismissal came in the second over of MI’s run chase. Yash bowled a brilliant inswinger that came in sharply as Rohit attempted to play a drive. The ball sneaked between his bat and pad and crashed into the middle and leg stump. With the scalp, Dayal provided the first breakthrough for RCB, with the scoreboard reading 21.
