In the 2014 IPL season, Yuvraj Singh played for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and scored 375 runs in just 14 games with three magnificent fifties. Despite that, he was not retained by the RCB management for the subsequent season.

During the 2015 IPL cuction, Yuvraj was picked up by Delhi for a huge amount of INR 16 crores and earned the tag of being the most expensive cricketer of the season.

In 2015, Yuvraj had a poor season as he scored only 247 runs in 14 games. With the ball, he could grab only one wicket at an ordinary economy-rate of 8.10. Delhi finished seventh in the points table and faced criticism for buying the star left-hander for such a massive amount.
