I was expecting to be picked for ODI squad as well: Yuvraj

December 21, 2015 08:17

Yuvraj Singh is known for making comebacks. After surviving a life-threatening cancer in 2011, the World Cup winning champion made a brief comeback in 2012 and was still able to attract big bids from Indian Premier League franchises.

And now, he is all set to make yet another comeback as he has found his name in the T20 squad, that will tour Australia in January. India will be playing five one-day internationals and three Twenty20 internationals in Australia from January 12-31.

In an exclusive interview with India Today, the 34-year-old all rounder said he was disappointed when he did not find his name in the ODI squad. "I think I was expecting my name to come in the ODI squad as well. But unfortunately it's not there. I look forward to play in T20s now," Yuvraj said.
