| Cricketing career Test ODI T20 |
| Test Matches |
Termed as a limited over specialist, Yuvraj Singh’s test career till now has been disappointing to say the least. Apart from few match winning knocks against Pakistan and England, Yuvi’s test career doesn’t have much to talk about. To be fair to him, he just didn’t got a longer run in test cricket which he deserved, and constant injuries didn’t helped him either. Yuvraj Singh has much to prove in this format. |
| ODI Matches |
Yuvraj announced himself on the big stage in only his second game, by scoring a match winning 84 of just 80 balls in icc’s knockouts cup in 2000 against the mighty Australians. When in full flow, Yuvraj Singh is the best thing to watch on a cricket field! Yuvraj is the backbone of Indian batting. He is the second most senior player after Tendulkar in the Indian team. He is one of the best timers of the cricket ball. His more than useful part time bowling lends balance to the team. |
| T20 |
He is a star in this format. He almost singlehandedly won India the inaugural t20 world cup. Who can ever forget his six sixes of six balls against Sturat Broad or his knock of 70 of 30 balls, when India were 40-2 in the 8th over against Australia in the semi finals. |
