you have enough compliment to show up your caliber UV ....now its up-to you that how you going to be as a player in remaining part of your career ....

we[UV fans .. :D ] hope & pray for you to do wonder in your last attempt soon .. common UV you can do it......:)
 
Its such a shame... Yuvraj has not delivered on his natural talent and he could have been a fantastic player. Time is running out for him but I hope he gets serious with his game and gets himself fit! For that to happen, no one should mollycoddle him!

Umar Akmal is equivalent to the summation of Bradman,Sobers,Viv,Lara and Tendulkar talentwise.But he doesn't like to show his true powers because he wants to give others also a chance to hog the limelight unlike the selfish people I mentioned above.

haha...so you people talking ybt the game, where pak after 39-6 still managed to win the game by over 350 runs and in the 2nd innigs all pak batsmen scored over 50 runs, till pak declared the innings to give indian guests some rest ....
 
Mate, we are not talking about mindless sloggers from Pakistan here. What i have so far seen him against any teams in T20's and ODI's, he is brilliant player with extreme talent.

It started against us in ENG in 2001 Natwest series and boy he is good. Don't even compare him with your sloggers. it's a shame.

Who won this game?:bhanja
 
Yuvi is destructive at his best..everyone knows that. He will have to perform really well to regain his side in the tests though. Don't see it happening soon, if Raina fails consistently then he will be back by default I think but I don't really know. Selectors can act on their whim sometimes.

Surprised to see Shiv Chanderpaul in there. I would think the GAYLE force is way more destructive...just that he needs to take his tests seriously. Or is he retired from tests already.. I hope not.
 
I think old Viv has been taking a break from watching cricket :D

Fixed.
By the way who won this match?

And those looked more like spinning deliveries to me than swinging.
And people with glass houses should NOT throw stones at others.Get your "great" batsmen outta those flat pitches of subcontinent and then we will see who is FTB :)))
 
Yuvraj Singh is the perfect example of how bad attitude can destroy a wonderful talent. The moment you think yourself to be bigger than the game, it will start haunting you and bite you back, which is what is happening to Yuvi now. At 29, time is fast running out for him. It's the now or never time for him.

Hopefully he can turn it around somehow and make use of that immense natural talent of his.

true ..

but i dont think he will make it to indian team again .raina has taken his place and is doing a great job ..evan if raina fails there r likes of tiwari and many more young batsmens who r better then yuvi ..it will take a miracle for him to make it to indian team again ..and sad thing is he cant blame anyone except himself for the situation hes put himself into
 
since we are talking about 'at his best'. Afridi is more destructive when on song ;)

oh boy, did i say that out loud?

The Yuraj statement is ok but its the Shiva bit which is worrying. I could understand if he said Gayle but not Shiva.

Is it just the Indians trying to get an ethnic Indian slant to it?

Well in one dayers or twenty twenty I could pay those comments, but he is not a complete test player.

So to me he fails the biggest test.

I suspect that IVA is referring to slogfests. If he's talking about tests - yes I agree he must have been having a session whilst listening to some roots & reggae
 
I don't think any country actually fears Chanderpaul in limited over cricket. Gayle is the key wicket and player to fear for WI in those formats and everyone knows it.

As for Yuvraj, I can only think Viv is trying to raise his popularity in India. No team with a fast bowler has anything to fear from Yuvraj and he is not fit enough to maintain any kind fof consistency to be a really feared player like Hayden was or Sehwag IS.

Yuvraj Singh Appreciation Thread

What a tournament this guy is having. A true match winner and very underrated when you compare it to guys like Sehwag and Tendulkar.

Well Done to Yuvi but I hope that was his last good performance in this world cup.

lol I keep screwing players name everyday. First it was ajmal and now its singh.

He's a very good finisher. If he gets well set no total looks safe.

Look how nervous dhoni was compared to Yuvi. Captaincy hasn't gotten to Dhoni I think.
 
His form in this tournament has come out of nowhere. I think his batting is feeding off his bowling and vice versa - it's all about confidence. Although he does bowl some filthy deliveries and get wickets. Inshallah he'll do it all again against Pakistani next week :)
 
How effortlessly he played Tait who was touching 153 km/hr and Lee who was touching 148 km/hr. Walloped them to all parts of the ground as if he was facing net bowlers.
 
If he continues this, the 2011 world cup could end up finishing as being known as Yuvraj's world cup
 
Had a dream world twenty20 in 07, we won. Now paving it for another glory man. Four man of the matches in 7 matches. Even if we lose next he has assured him the man of tourney ALREADY

btw I can say ..UV still not in full flow .....best is yet to come ....:D

Don't worry, his long walk of shame after getting out on a duck will also be on display in the semi-final. :ajmal

Then only will he have delivered the full Yuvraj Singh package.
 
He played with no fear, and that's how Pakistan should play against India next week, obviously with some caution.
 
him and afridi competing for the player of the tournament without a doubt.......we need to dismiss yuvraj early...thats for sure....him and tendu.......their the key...
 
UV.......:D

UV let this to happen again in next match ...:D

All the very best UV ....u'll Shine like a Gold in next matches too ....

UV GOD help those who help themselves..... All the best...

Yuvraj shows support for Sonu

India's World Cup hero Yuvraj Singh proved to be more heroic off the field than on it, announcing a Rs. 1 lakh monetary help to national level football and volleyball player Arunima Sinha (Sonu) who lost her leg after being thrown out of a running train by men who had tried to rob her, according to a report in the Telegraph.

Yuvraj said Sonu was a "brave sportsperson" and wished her a speedy recovery.

"It is really unfortunate and tragic with what has happened to Arunima. She must be a brave sportsperson who came forward to fight against robbery. I know the loss is irreparable, but I would like to offer her this little contribution of Rs one lakh," he said in a statement issued by the 'Yuvraj Singh Foundation'.

"I wish her a speedy recovery and in future, if she needs some help, she can always contact me," he added.

But I think they could've done that in private though thats only my opinion.

If she has been offered to receive financial help privately before UV & Bhajji decided to help, then your opinion is justified
