5 reasons why Gambhir's statements about Yuvraj and Dhoni make sense

#4 Yuvraj is no longer an all-rounder

Yuvraj's athletic ability has dropped as well

If we look at India’s victorious campaign in the 2011 World Cup, the performer who stands out for them with both bat and ball is Yuvraj Singh. It was Yuvraj’s all-round efforts that ensured India’s win and earned him the Man of the Tournament award.

Ever since his comeback, Yuvraj seems to have lost his ability to bowl well and pick wickets in the middle overs. He has hardly bowled of late which means it will always be difficult for him to find a place in the side as a pure batsman now.

Yuvraj’s performances with the bat have not been good enough to warrant him a place in the side as a batsman. His sloppy fielding of course does not help his cause.

The likes of Kedar Jadhav and Hardik Pandya now fit the bill as all-rounders which is why Yuvraj will struggle to make a comeback.
