End of the road for Yuvraj Singh?
He singlehandedly won a World T20 for India in 2007. But then he played a big role in losing the 2014 edition. He coughed blood, hung around and won India the 2011 World Cup. Yet, his failures as a Test cricketer remain baffling.
New Delhi: He singlehandedly won a World T20 for India in 2007. But then he played a big role in losing the 2014 edition. He coughed blood, hung around and won India the 2011 World Cup. Yet, his failures as a Test cricketer remain baffling.
IBut now it looks like one of India's greatest ever limited-overs exponents may never be seen again in a blue jersey, a
uniform he had made his own for the better part of the last 17 years.
So, is it time up for Yuvraj Singh? Perhaps, it is if one reads between the lines of what experts feel."Yuvi is a fighter but I believe going into the 2019 World Cup, it is more to do with his fitness rather than just form. Look, there's a difference between 20-over fitness and 50-over fitness," Saba Karim, who was a national selector in the last panel said.
"It was our panel, who got Yuvraj back in 2015 for the Australia T20. I believe Manish (Pandey) is a great talent and should be given enough opportunities," the former India stumper said.
Former India opener and analyst Aakash Chopra raised a valid question."Unless selectors come out with a definitive statement on Yuvraj, you don't exactly know their policy. If you have both Dhoni and Yuvi, you will have to make them bat at No.4 and 5. That will be an issue," Chopra explained.
