Yuvraj Singh broke his silence and came out defending his teammate MS Dhoni, after his father Yograj Sing’s emotional outburst against the current Indian skipper. In Twitter Yuvraj tweeted, “Iv got nothing to do with statements coming out in the media ! As iv said before enjoyed playing under dhoni no issues at all” (sic).

Yuvraj also congratulated Dhoni for being a father and he said, he is quite eager to meet him during the course of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2015. “I look forward to meet msd and congratulate him on becoming a father !”(sic)

 

Earlier Yograj lambasted Indian captain Dhoni by accusing him of being arrogant, and comparing him to the mythic antagonist of the Ramayana, Raavana.

According to a report by ibnlive.in, Yograj launched a tirade against Dhoni on a Hindi news channel. “Dhoni was nothing. He has become a God in cricket just because of media. Media has crowned him as a great which he never deserved. There was a time when he had nothing but today he sits in front of media and rips off media persons. He laughs at media who has given him so much hype. He laughs at Indian people who clap when he scores a run. Honestly, if I were a media person, I would have slapped Dhoni right there,” said Yograj.
