Both face a potential two-year ban if two more missed tests are recorded. NADA updates RTP for the second quarter of 2026, adding Abhishek Sharma and Axar Patel. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shefali Verma in NADA's crosshairs after missing dope tests Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shefali Verma are reportedly at the centre of an anti-doping controversy after the National Anti-Doping Agency issued them formal notices for failing to be present when dope control officers arrived to collect their samples.

According to Amar Ujala, both Jaiswal and Verma are part of NADA's Registered Testing Pool. It is a group of elite athletes who are required to log a specific time and location each day so that dope control officers can show up unannounced to collect samples. A DCO arrived at Jaiswal's registered location on December 17 last year and at Verma's on November 7 last year, but neither cricketer was present.

NADA subsequently reached out to both players on February 18 and 20 this year seeking an explanation, but received no response from either. As a result, the agency formally recorded its first missed test against both of them. The BCCI and ICC have also been informed.
