10 International Players to watch out for in the 2016/17 Ranji Trophy season
4. Yuvraj Singh
At 34, Yuvraj Singh, once the apple of the eye for many Indian fans across the country has now seemingly fallen out of favor with the selectors. While age is one factor in the equation, it is clear that the southpaw has not been in the best of form since his comeback from the life-threatening illness he suffered in the fall of 2011.
While this has taken a toll on his fitness, Yuvraj has impressed of late with the bat with some spectacular performances in the Duleep Trophy. While some question his performances in Tests, Yuvraj has one of the better figures in first-class cricket compared to some of the other players in the country. In 128 first-class matches, he boasts of 8000 plus runs and 161 wickets.
Although one may well think that it is a bit too late to recall Yuvraj back into the team, it may still be possible that the newly appointed selection team calls for one last hurrah for the all-rounder who has given Indian cricket so much in the past.
