There was a lot of buzz about the discarded Indian all-rounder, Yuvraj Singh, ahead of the auction. After the poor outings last year, the 37-year-old was dropped from the Kings XI Punjab side and put back into the auction pool. There were clouds of uncertainty if he would get sold in the auction in the first place.
Yuvraj, who has been the architect of some of the most memorable wins for India lost his sheen with the bat in recent times. Also, he isn’t bowling as much as he did earlier and has been quite ineffective. Therefore, there were a lot of eyes following him up keening during the auction.
The all-rounder did go unsold in the first round of the auction causing concern among the fans. However, he was second-time lucky when he was called back again to go under the hammer. On the second occasion, the Mumbai Indians decided to lift the paddle to indicate that they were interested in buying him. The gavel of Hugh Edmeades went down with the call ‘sold’ which brought about a sigh of relief for both Yuvraj Singh and his fans.
Come on, Yuvraj Singh!
Many were extremely happy and relieved to see Yuvraj being picked for another IPL season. Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan was among those and he shared the happiness on micro-blogging site Twitter.
“If you are wondering why this took time…we’ve just got back to senses! WELCOME TO MUMBAI, @YUVSTRONG12 #CricketMeriJaan #IPLAuction,” the Mumbai Indians handle tweeted. There was a PUBG sort of graphic put up along with this tweet. Yuvraj Singh was seen donning the Mumbai colours in that picture.
