The selection of Yuvraj Singh for the limited overs leg against England induced plenty of debates and divided a lot of opinions.

Fans and pundits believed that the step of picking a 35-year old was a step backwards, and that this opportunity could have been given to a young prospect.

However, the selectors believed that Yuvraj deserved the inclusion owing to his Ranji form and his experience. Even captain Virat Kohli backed the stalwart to the hilt.

The southpaw did not disappoint either, and he wound the clock back in Cuttack when he smashed 150 and annihilated the England attack. His partnership with MS Dhoni evoked plenty of emotions for the Indian fans, and the selectors decision to bring back Yuvraj stood vindicated.
