Guest Yograj Singh Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 well said kooljatt.... my boy deserves to be the mainstay of the indian batting order in all forms of the game right now after knocks like that spectacular hundred against pakistan in bangalore... all the loooooosers cant realize it but i'm glad you see just how good he is even when he's in the first bad patch of his life.... if india stick with him he'll return to form soon - he's too good not to - and will be smashing big hundreds in tests and odis again Link to comment
msb1991 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 What do you think is behind his bad form in Tests, Yograj? Link to comment
Guest Yograj Singh Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 the selectors and team management are not giving him the faith he needs. i am the only one who goes out publicly and supports him and backs him to do well at all levels, but nobody else gives him that confidence. how can a player perform when nobody will show any faith in him and give him chances? selectors should give him a run of about 20-25 tests in the middle order and bat him at 4 or 5 - after all that will be his long term spot, yuvi is the FUTURE of the indian batting lineup Link to comment

And the so called deserved mainstays nowadays hardly ever stays in the middle... Don't get me wrong... he is too good a player, but he is too inconsistent as pointed out by his mid-30s average he needs to be a lot more consistent especially against spinners to be considered as mainstay.

kablooee87 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Sadly I think Yuvraj is teetering on the edge at the moment. If he isn't handled correctly, we could see a tremendous talent go to waste. India could really use him coming good right about now. They've introduced all these new, young players and even though Yuvraj is young, he's been around for long enough that he is the perfect bridge between the previous side and this side. A performing Yuvraj means India have a reliable, experienced player who can show the way for the newbies. A non-performing Yuvraj means India have to either play with an extra newbie or revert back to an older player. Link to comment
kooljatt Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Yuvraj leaving no stone unturned to regain form From Bollywood flicks to batting tips to having his mother by his side, Yuvraj Singh is trying his best to turn around his sagging career. The batting prince of India's next generation of cricketers, Yuvraj is finding the ground slipping fast under his feet. The coronation is nowhere near; the banishment after an innings or two is more of a possibility. His mother Shabnam was with him in Australia for the last eight days. She wouldn't be around to see his 200th match, the one against Sri Lanka on the 19th of this month. The match could be a cause of celebration -- or the one when he returns to the starting blocks. The left-hander has scores of 2, 0, 5, 12, 0 in his last five Test innings. In One-dayers, it is 2,3 and 6. He has not played 100 balls yet in Tests or One-dayers in this series. His failure has befuddled everyone, more so the dashing left-hander who just cannot understand why every second shot of his is going up in the air. Yuvraj's dismissals in this series, flicking or driving into the hands of short extra cover or short midwicket, has been a norm. Now an advice has come his way from none other than the master himself, Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar has advised Yuvraj to have a round-handed top grip on his bat: ostensibly it would give him better control on his top hand and stop shots from going into the air. It's an interesting advice full of common sense but no less significant is Tendulkar's observation about his stance. Apparently Yuvraj's left shoulder is sagging in his batting stance as he awaits the bowler to deliver his stuff. In Tendulkar's opinion, it is because he is expecting every delivery to be a bouncer hurled at him. This notion of bowlers testing him out with short-pitched stuff is keeping Yuvraj pinned back on his backfoot. Consequently, he is late in coming on to the front foot and not always in full control of his drives. The Little Master wants Yuvraj to correct this anomaly. Tendulkar feels Yuvraj has no reason to be overtly concerned by bouncers: he must trust his reflexes and he is good enough to tackle them competently. Tendulkar has cited him the example of his best, certainly the most famous, innings to date. In the Twenty20 World Cup in South Africa, Yuvraj hit six sixes and all of them, except the last one which he thrashed over point for the maximum, were delivered off the front foot. It was not, Tendulkar has reasoned, as if he was batting on a sub-continent pitch. This innings came about in Kingsmead, Durban, and against a frontline international fast bowler Stuart Broad. One of Tendulkar's advice, offered early in this tour, Yuvraj has not been able to follow to the hilt. Tendulkar wants him to bowl more and more in the nets in order to gauge the pace of the wickets in Australia but the young left-hander, because of the knee injury he suffered in Perth, has not been able to put it to practice. Yuvraj's left-arm spinners require him to twist his front knee at the point of delivery and the Punjab left-hander is averse to unsettle it again. As things are, it is stopping him from fielding in his vaunted position at cover point. India desperately needed him in that position in Canberra on a slugging pitch where playing square was the best route for batsmen to score runs. Yuvraj apparently does not feel that his failures are because of a clouded and hesitant mind. Yet he is taking time off to watch a few light-hearted Bollywood flicks, 'Partner' and 'Halla Bol' among others, in order to relax ahead of critical encounters in Adelaide. Adelaide is a venue which is critical for India's campaign, as well as it is for Yuvraj's immediate future. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has so far defended his deputy stoutly but the sight of the skipper striding out to the wicket with nine overs remaining against Sri Lanka in Canberra on Tuesday, was a giveaway of slipping confidence. Seniors such as Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid have been sacrificed for lesser failures. Not long ago, Yuvraj's promise made the Indians readjust their batting order to the extent that Rahul Dravid, against his wishes, was made to open in the first two Tests of the present tour. All this goodwill would be a thing of the past if the Punjab dasher does not fire this week. http://cricket.indiatimes.com/Yuvraj_leaving_no_stone_unturned_to_regain_form/articleshow/2780028.cms Link to comment

The Outsider Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Yuvraj must be played in the series against South Africa as well in ODIs even if he doesn't get past single figures during this entire tournament. The guy has been the mainstay of our ODI batting for the past couple of years and deserves a chance to get back to form without any insecurities. Link to comment
Mr. Wicket Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Agree. Of course, the all too transparent problem is that when he returns to form in ODIs, the bandwagon will fire up once more to plant him into the test middle order.
