Did Yuvraj Singh Play a Prank by Announcing His India Team Comeback?
New Delhi: So is Yuvraj Singh coming back to play for India following the dismal show in the ongoing T20 World Cup? In his Instagram post on Monday night, he says he would be playing for India. And as expected, we thought he would be back for the senior side in February. But looks like Yuvraj specifically mentioned February because that is the time when the Road Safety World Series takes place. And Yuvraj is a key member of the India Legends outfit that is led by Sachin Tendulkar.
So, it is clear he is not coming out of retirement.

The stylish left-hander has been part of 40 Tests, 304 ODIs, and 58 T20Is. He has amassed over 11,000 runs with 17 centuries and 71 half-centuries. He is arguably India’s biggest match-winner. The now-39-year-old was also a good bowler. He picked up 148 wickets with two four-wicket hauls and one five-wicket haul.
The Punjab-born cricketer made his debut way back in 2000 in the ICC Knockout Trophy in Nairobi and went on to play for as long as 17 years.
