Recently a video of him and commentator Jatin Sapru went viral in which Yash Dayal is seen expressing about how stalwart Virat Kohli cheered him up for the upcoming matches. Dayal and Kohli share the same dressing room during the Indian Premier League (IPL) as they both represent Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).
In a show when Jatin asked about his favourite Virat Kohli moment, "during a practice session, Virat Kohli came to me and said, I have some work with you, please come to my room for five minutes." I kept wondering what did I do wrong.

"I entered the room and he asked me to sit beside him. He then said, see whatever happened against Rinku is his part, but for that, you don't need to see yourself down. He shared his experiences, he connected with me."
I didn't know when that five minutes turned into 15-20 minutes.
"Later he said, we will back you in the whole season. Even if you perform well or not, we just want you to be happy whenever you step on the ground, we want you to be excited."
"Later when I came out of my room, I somewhere saw a 2.0 version of myself", stated Yash Dayal.
