Yuvraj Singh under Spot Light
Everybody seems to be in pursuit of an answer as to what went wrong to the boy who used to turn cricket balls into lemons.
As a 14-year-old day-scholar from Chandigarh at his father Yograj Singh's playing-days mate Dilip Vengsarkar's academy at Azad maidan, Yuvraj Singh debunked a few myths.
The BCCI corridors reverberate that Yuvraj is being regarded as a negative influence on the youngsters in the team.
The present year has witnessed him as injured, dispositional, scrambling to rebound back with his personal style, losing King's XI Punjab's captaincy and eventually, noticing his absence from ODI team because of his deteriorated form.
Yuvraj's old coaches, current friends, ex-selectors and team mates from the past posted reasons for Yuvraj unceasing drift.
Team India coach during Yuvraj's heady early years in international cricket, John Wright outlined, "I could see that he is not his same confident self who would hit the ball down the ground. He is the kind of cricketer who plays really well when he is in a happy environment".
Two players, who grabbed a place in the Indian side after Yuvraj, were Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir. Gautam also grabbed the position of the vice-captain.
In the end, one can say that despite his injury as one of the reasons, however, Yuvraj should rise and start focusing more on his health and fitness.
