Yuvraj Singh is one player who has had a long international career. He is very popular in India and has a huge fan following too. A player who fought cancer and also won India a World Cup after 28 years, Yuvraj is a legend of Indian cricket. Here are 5 reasons that he is one of India’s best talents:

A Treat To Watch 

When on form, there are no other batsmen in the game who can make batting look as elegant and classy as Yuvraj Singh. The southpaw plays the most beautiful drives with such ease that he makes batting look like a walk in the park. He is also someone who can time the ball to perfection and is worth watching live in a stadium. He has a lot of big scores in international and domestic cricket and this is a testament to his sound technique and ability.

One Of The Best Hitters In Cricket History

Yuvraj has the power to hit the big ones and this has been chronicled throughout his career. The most famous one obviously is the six sixes in the T20 World Cup in 2007 against England. His ability to pick the length of a ball in advance makes him one of the most dangerous hitters the game has ever seen. He is a real asset to any team that he plays for thanks to his talent. He can hit right from the word “go” and that power hasn’t diminished as yet.

Yuvraj at one point was one of the best fielders in the world. He may have lost a bit of his mobility due to age but he can still pouch the important catches. The best representative of Yuvraj’s talent in the field is the 2011 World Cup Final against Sri Lanka where he would have saved at least 10-12 crucial runs with his tremendous fielding.

Yuvraj is someone who can bowl as well as bat well. During the 2011 World Cup, his bowling gave India some crucial inroads when the others weren’t able to get the wickets. His ability to pick wickets at any point of the innings makes him an excellent choice to have as a back-up. His slinging, round-arm action can be hard to pick up and he can make the ball turn on pitches that are deemed dead.

The King Of Comebacks

If there’s one person who knows how to comeback, both personally and professionally, it is Yuvraj. Just after the World Cup in 2011, he was diagnosed with cancer. He took a year off to rehabilitate and came back to the team. Similarly, in the T20 World Cup, he was ostracized after he played a poor innings in the Final. He stormed back into contention and even scored a belligerent 150+ score in the series against England to remind everyone of his permanent class.
