#2 Yuvraj Singh’s place in the team is in danger
A few years back, when he was in his prime days, Yuvraj Singh brought so many things to the table that the team management would have to think twice before benching him. Nowadays, though, things have changed. Neither is he fit enough to bowl his quota ten overs nor is he the sharp fielder that he was.
As such, his role in the team has been reduced to that of a specialist batsman. And, as a specialist batsman, one needs to fire on a consistent basis. Yuvraj, however, has failed to stitch together a decent run of good performances. He showed shadows of his old self in the Champions Trophy opener against Pakistan but has endured a poor form ever since.
In the three matches that he played in West Indies, Yuvraj scored 57 runs at an average of 19. With the likes of Dinesh Karthik and Manish Pandey standing on the fringes, he can no longer be guaranteed a place in the XI.
