Yuvraj Singh avoided Dhoni's name in his World cricket Team..!?
Indian cricket legend yuvraj singh recently announced the world-class 11-man squad in an interview. He has even given a place to his rival, Andrew Flintoff. But dhoni, the legend of indian cricket, was not given a place. This has created a stir among the fans. Recently Yuvraj Singh-led indian champions won the World Legends championship t20 series by defeating the Pakistani champions to win the trophy. An excited yuvraj singh was asked to pick the world's best 11-man squad and yuvraj singh chose a world-class 11-man squad with only three indian players.
Dhoni's name did not figure in those three indian players. Yuvraj Singh's selected World cricket XI - sachin tendulkar, rohit sharma, Ricky Ponting, Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Adam Gilchrist, Andrew Flintoff, Wasim Akram, Shane Warne, Muttiah Muralitharan and Glenn McGrath. England's Andrew Flintoff, who is considered to be Yuvraj Singh's enemy, is also named in the squad. The two clashed in the 2007 t20 World Cup. Then Andrew Flintoff insulted Yuvraj Singh. A furious yuvraj singh hit six sixes off Stuart Broad's over. Because of that unforgettable event, both of them were seen as enemy players.
In this situation, he did not select his teammate dhoni for this team. But, even choosing the enemy player has caused great surprise. In this 11-man squad, dhoni may be chosen in place of Adam Gilchrist. Because Gilchrist used to play as an opener in the ODI team. While yuvraj singh has chosen sachin tendulkar and rohit sharma as the openers in the team, dhoni may be chosen as a wicket-keeper batsman in the middle order. But he avoided it. It is well known that yuvraj singh was unhappy with Dhoni's captaincy in 2007. Because of that, fans are saying that he might avoid Dhoni's name.
