Yograj singh on yuvraj-kohli friendship: Yograj Singh, father of former Team India all -rounder Yuvraj Singh, is once again in the news for his controversial statements. Sometimes MS Dhoni and sometimes Kapil Dev, Yograj has often put veteran players in the dock.
This time Virat Kohli has become his target. In an interview, he described the friendship of Yuvraj and Kohli as just a pretext and called almost all the fellow players of Yuvraj as “stabbing the back”. His statement remains a matter of discussion.
Yograj Singh said that there was no friend of Yuvraj
During a conversation on a YouTube channel, Yograj Singh was asked whether Virat Kohli could help to pursue the career of Yuvraj as captain? In fact, Kohli became the captain of ODI and T20 team after Dhoni left the captaincy in 2017. At the same time, Yuvraj got a few opportunities and was dropped from the team after the Champions Trophy. At that time, there was a lot of discussion about Kohli-Yuvraj’s deep friendship.
But Yograj Singh, while rejecting it completely, said, “There is no friend on the stairs of success, you are alone. Where there is money and fame, friends are not found there. I told Yuvraj, tell Yuvraj, if there is a true friend.
Dhoni and other players also attacked
Yograj Singh not only attacked Kohli, but also a scathing attack on the rest of the players. He said, “Everyone was afraid of Yuvraj not to snatch my chair. He was such a work made by God. There was such a big player that everyone used to be afraid of him, whether Dhoni or someone else. Most of the team’s companions were just stabbing on the back, no true friend.”
How is Yuvraj Singh’s career
Talking about Yuvraj Singh’s career, he scored 1900 runs in 40 Test matches and took 9 wickets. At the same time, Yuvraj played 304 matches in ODIs, in which he has 8701 runs and 111 wickets. In T20 cricket, he scored 1177 runs in 58 matches and took 29 wickets.
