Scandals

In March 2024, during an IPL match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Dagar bowled two overs, allowing only 6 runs. However, RCB chose not to use him further in the game. Dinesh Karthik, RCB's head coach, explained that the decision was made because Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dube were batting, and they believed Dagar's bowling would not be effective against them. RCB lost the match by 6 wickets, and this decision received criticism from experts.
