The Natwest Trophy win in 2002 is one of the most memorable moments in Indian cricket history. The famous victory in the final came courtesy of some impressive batting display from Yuvraj Singh and Mohammad Kaif. The duo stitched a vital partnership to take India to the victory.

While Kaif went on to have a productive ODI career, Yuvraj has gone on to have an illustrious career. Be it batting at number 4 or 5 or 6, the southpaw has always played with full zest and scored runs from all the positions.

Yuvraj has played at number six in 59 ODI innings thus far and has accumulated 1799 runs at an average of almost 37 and strike rate of 84.50. Even though he has been out of the team currently, his contributions in the middle-order can never be forgotten.
