Yash Dayal's Redemption: From Schoolkids' 'Rinku Singh' Taunts To India Call-Up
For nearly one year, Chanderpal Dayal would avoid venturing out of his residence near Allahabad's Karbala Masjid in the afternoon. The reason was both weird and hurtful. There would be school buses that would pass through his locality and children peeking out of the window would start hooting "Riinnnkuuuu Siiiinghhhhh, Riiiinnnkuuuuu Siiiinghhhh, five sixes, five sixes,", a stern reminder of his son Yash's ordeal during that fateful evening in Ahmedabdad when his Uttar Pradesh's statemate got instant stardom and subsequently a national call-up hitting him for five sixes in a final over of an IPL game between Gujarat Titans and KKR.
