Maybe, Yuvraj Singh is not under consideration anymore for the Indian cricket team as he is now 36 years old. His recent form is not great as well. But the Indian cricket fraternity will not forget his name as he was the hero when they lifted the World Cup for the second time in 2011. The left-handed all-rounder played a central role to win the World Cup for India at home.

Yuvraj is adored in Bangladesh - firstly for his all-round cricketing abilities and secondly for his friendship with Mashrafe Mortaza during his early cricketing days. It is famous in Bangladesh that Yuvraj wanted Mashrafe to play for Kings XI Punjab in IPL 2008. However, KKR bought him for a hefty sum.

Yuvraj played 21 international matches against Bangladesh and scored 440 runs in an average of 31.42 with one century and one fifty to his name.
