Prolific all-rounder Yuvraj Singh may soon appear on the cricket field once again. Yuvraj Singh has announced that he can be seen playing T20 cricket in India soon. Yuvraj Singh had said goodbye to cricket in June 2019 and he was playing in a foreign league with the permission of the BCCI. Because of this, Yuvraj could not play IPL either. However, now Yuvraj Singh can be seen playing T20 cricket from the Punjab team.
Yuvraj Singh set to return
According to the news of Cricbuzz, Yuvraj Singh is ready to return to T20 cricket. Yuvraj Singh was recently seen helping young cricketers from Punjab and now he can also be seen playing T20 cricket from this team. In a special interview with Cricbuzz, Yuvraj Singh said, ‘I enjoyed spending time with these young players. I felt that these players could understand my point and understand it the earliest. I also had to go to the nets to teach some batting tricks. I was surprised that I was playing good shots. I have not caught a bat for a long time and yet I am playing well.’
Yuvraj is working on fitness
Yuvraj Singh was seen helping the youth in the off-season camp in Punjab. Apart from this, he also worked on his fitness in the last two months. Yuvraj Singh trained and started batting practice as well. Yuvraj also scored good runs in practice matches. Yuvraj said that Punjab Cricket Association secretary Punit Bali contacted Yuvraj Singh and asked him to come back from retirement. Bali argued that if Yuvraj plays in the T20 team with young players, then they will get to learn a lot.
Yuvraj said that he has already said goodbye to domestic cricket but he cannot deny Puneet Bali’s offer. “I am thinking on this”. Yuvraj Singh said that he wants Punjab to win the championship. Yuvraj said that Punjab cricketer Shubman Gill is in Team India and 3-4 cricketers of the state also have the power to represent Team India.
Yuvraj Singh has sent an e-mail to the Board of Control for Cricket in India, BCCI President Sourav Ganguly, and Secretary Jay Shah about his return after his retirement that he wants to play for Punjab for the next few seasons. In this letter, Yuvraj Singh has also confirmed that if he is allowed, he will not like to play in foreign leagues again. Yuvraj Singh is yet to receive a reply from the BCCI in this matter. Yuvraj has said that “if allowed, I will only play T20 cricket, but who knows, let’s see”.
