Arguably India’s best limited-overs all-rounder in recent years, Yuvraj Singh has time and again risen to the occasion on the biggest of stages.
From captaining IPL teams and being an integral part of India’s successful 2007 World T20 campaign to helping the Men in Blue lift the 50-over World Cup, ‘Yuvi’ has achieved it all, and how.
Even off the field Yuvraj is a true fighter – a trait best illustrated by his successful battle against cancer.
Given his winning attitude and mature outlook, the Pune Warriors India, have a remarkable senior statesman in their ranks.
Despite a below average year with the bat in 2013, his ability and what he could mean to a side also in the field with the ball will mean he is snapped up quickly.
