Amid controversies and allegations of sexual assault on a minor, RCB fast bowler Yash Dayal married social media influencer Shweta Pundir. The video of their wedding on Pundir’s Instagram page surprised everyone.
Yash Dayal was probably going through the best phase of his career as he became a key member of the RCB attack when they won their first IPL title. His bowling antics could have earned him an India call-up, but character on the field doesn’t count all the time.
The cricketer was booked under charges of rape by a minor girl. As per the strict laws of the POCSO Act, which ensures strict punishment for crimes against children, he was repeatedly denied anticipatory bail.

Indian cricketer and RCB left-arm fast bowler Yash Dayal, who was sidelined from cricket due to heinous allegations of crimes against children, has reportedly tied the knot with longtime sweetheart Shweta Pundir in a secret ceremony in Noida, Uttar Pradesh.
Dayal married longtime partner Shweta Pundir in a private ceremony, which was not attended by any cricketer. The ceremony was reportedly held on 4 February, with only relatives present and none of the teammates attending the ceremony.
He is accused of raping a minor and emotionally blackmailing her for over two years by promising her a cricket career. This has caught the attention of many people on social media and in the cricket world.
