Former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, renowned for his remarkable contrib💮utions to Indian cricket, recently shared his top three picks for a dream playing XI.
Yuvraj Singh’s achievements: A legacy of triumphs
Yuvraj’s own cricketing career is marked by several significant achievements. He was a key player in India’s triumphs in the T20 World Cup 2007 and the ODI World Cup 2011. His explosive batting, highlighted by his six sixes in an over against Stuart Broad during the 2007 edition of the T20 World Cup, remains one of the most iconic moments in cricket history.

Yuvraj’s bold choice for his dream team
In a conversation with Sportskeeda, Yuvraj was asked to name his top three players for a dream team. His selections were Chris Gayle, AB de Villiers and Jasprit Bumrah, notably omitting high-profile Indian cricketers like Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. Yuvraj, who shared the field with Bumrah during their time with Team India and the Mu⛄mbai Indians in the IPL, is well-acquainted with Bumrah’s journey from a rookie to a leading fast bowler. This decision could be surprising for many, given the esteemed careers of the players left out, particularly Dhoni, whose exclusion was particularly startling given his illustrious career and his reputation as one🐓 of the best wicketkeeper-batter and captains.
Current endeavors and future prospects
In addition to his surprising picks for a dream team, Yuvraj is reportedly in discussions to become the head coach of the Delhi Capitals (DC) in place of Ricky Ponting who recently ended his coaching stint. His transition from a celebrated player to a potential coaching role reflects his continued involvement in the sport and his desire to contribute to cricket in new ways. Yuvraj’s strategic insights and deep understanding of the game position him as a strong candidate for the role,🦂 promising to bring valuable experience to the Delhi franchise.
