Yuvraj Singh reveals the names of the most promising cricketers from Punjab

Veteran Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh is striving hard in the domestic circuit. It is indeed a pleasure to see a fighter in Yuvraj still giving it his all after having played almost two decades of cricket. His hunger to play for the national side does not seem to end and that is evident from the way he is motivating himself to push the limits one more time. Yuvraj’s next big assignment will be the IPL 2018, where he will play for the Kings XI Punjab.

While the comeback of Yuvraj Singh in the national side remains to be seen, the veteran cricketer recently picked a few good names from his domestic side, Punjab, who he feels would make it to the Indian team soon. Yuvraj Singh remarked that the likes of Sandeep Sharma and Barinder Sran have already played for India but failed to cement their spots. Among the batsmen, he feels that Shubman Gill, Mandeep Singh, Anmolpreet Singh, and Manan Vohra are top contenders to make it big sometime soon.

“In the current team most guys have played for India. Sandeep Sharma, Barinder Sran… But they are not able to cement their place in the team. Mandeep Singh is there. Manan Vohra is good too. Shubhman Gill is a very promising opener. Abhishek Sharma is a very good all-rounder. Anmolpreet Singh has done very well this season. Some of them will make it to the top side soon,” Yuvraj Singh quoted.

On his retirement plans

Another big question that lies ahead for Yuvraj is how far can he push himself. When asked about his retirement plans, Yuvraj Singh, as per the quotes in Sportstarlive, noted that he still feels good about his fitness. He believes he can play for a couple of years more. He noted that he has thoroughly enjoyed his cricketing journey and will continue to fight to make a comeback to the national side.

“I don’t want to leave the game with any regret, thinking I should have played for some more years. I want to go when I feel it is the right time to go, when I feel I have done my best and I could not have done any more than this. I am still playing because I am enjoying playing cricket, not just because I have to play for India or I have to play the IPL. The motivation is definitely to play for India. I feel two or three IPLs are left in me,” Yuvraj remarked.

“The journey has been nice. I have been a fighter, taking on tough situations. I like being a pillar of strength to people, for those suffering from cancer or going through other issues in life. I want to be known as someone who never gave up. Whether I play for India or not, I will give my 100 per cent on the field,” he added further.
