MUMBAI: On a day when Umesh Yadav landed a job with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) as assistant manager, the rightarm India pace bowler also had to deal with some bad news.

Umesh’s house in Nagpur was burgled on Tuesday, and according to reports, the thief or thieves took cash amounting to ~45,000 as well as mobile phones. The number of mobile phones that have been stolen is not yet known.

Umesh was appointed assistant manager in RBI on Tuesday, and he will be posted in his hometown Nagpur.

He had completed his formalitie­s of joining the RBI on Monday, according to reports.

Umesh is set to leave for Sri Lanka with the India team on Wednesday.

“He couldn’t have asked for a better organisati­on than the Reserve Bank of India. Though he is financiall­y secured — as most of the current generation cricketers are, thanks to IPL — it’s always good to have a permanent job,” a source was quoted as saying.

THE THIEF OR THIEVES TOOK CASH AMOUNTING TO ~45,000 AND MOBILE PHONES. THE NUMBER OF MOBILE PHONES THAT HAVE BEEN STOLEN IS NOT KNOWN.
