Check for the data formats. For example if the client using dd/mm/yyyy and the server is expecting mm/dd/yyyy, you will see a HTTP 500 error as the model binder will fail to do the binding

but if there is a problem in dates how is it working for some dates?btw I tried before with dates and it was working just fine

if its a problem with formats, as long as you send dates like 1/1/2001, 12/12/2001, 6/5/2001 it will work. But the moment you send 13/2/2001 to a server which is expecting mm/dd/yyyy, the binder would fail and IIS will respond with a HTTP 500 error

Change your ajax post method like below.

$.ajax({ url: "/reports/gettournamentinfo", contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8", type: "POST",
                data: '{"tournamentID":"' + elementValue+ '", "date":"' + startDateValue + '"}',
                success: function (data) {      
                },
                error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {  }
            });
