Yuvraj is a massive danger

[Mamu]

India, along with hosts South Africa and Australia , are the strongest contenders for next month's ICC Champions Trophy with Yuvraj Singh posing a massive threat to the bowlers, fears New Zealand medium pacer Ian Butler. "India plays good one-day cricket. So, I wouldn't like to put a finger on who is favourite to win the 5 October final. You've got to look after your own backyard and not worry about what other teams are doing," Butler said in an ICC newsletter. "Yuvraj Singh is a massive danger, especially with some of the short boundaries he can get," the 27-year-old pacer added. Apart from Yuvraj, the right-arm pacer tipped South African pacer Dale Steyn [ Images ] and Pakistan's Saeed Ajmal [ Images ] as players to watch out for.

Agree, Yuvraj & Afridi are the most destructive batsmen today in ODIs & 20/20.

That's what I was wondering. That name comes up with every other good batsman. Its an insult to Yuvraj.

you got to do with what you have.

[Jai Ho]

afridi? :cantstop: I say the new kid on the block Akmal jr. is worth watching out for. of course Dhoni the #1 batsman in the world will also do good along with #2 Yuvraj. :two_thumbs_up:

according to them afridi better thean yuvraj imran nazir better than sehwag and yousuf better than sachin now how do they think so..............i will want at least one neutral person to comment on this

[gaurav92]

yuvraj is definitely threatening and some other threatening batsman who will be playing the Champions Trophy are Sachin (of course) Jayasuriya (But somehow hes falling cheaply nowadays with his poor shot selection) dilshan (in terrific form) gibbs (at home he is devastating) ab de villiers (hes a gr8 player too)

[King Tendulkar]

Afridi is pants. Has a couple of decent 20/20 lottery games and is a world beater again. To try and compare retard to the regal yuvraj is like trying to compare a donkey to a thoroughbred stallion!

[Sachinism]

AB Devilliers will pwn all

It's time Yuvraj did something special in a big tournament. I had thought he would have a terrific WC '07. Did nothing special and flopped in the CB series. Perhaps it's time for him to have a career defining torunament like Tendulkar in '96 or Dravid in '99 WC. He is at the top of his game and it's not unreasonable to expect something special from him here.

ok dhoni is overated all he does is just turn over the strike by making singles and takes no risks, which has led to him having a high average therefore gaining the number 1 spot, even afridi can turn over the strike and look good when he makes those singles but then gets out when he plays a silly shot, that's the only thing dhoni don't do because maintains a good temperament, if afridi had temperament he could do the same as dhoni aswell.

Did you just try to compare Dhoni and Afridi?

We here at ICF do not give a *** to how he fares in cricket. This topic and forum has NOTHING to do with Afridi.

Post. Ever. (no, not holy.)

T20 WC?

Yeah, T20 WC. And since Afridi has already been mentioned in the thread, I'll go on record and say I expect bigger and better things from Yuvraj than T20 action.
