Yuvraj Singh Scores A Century After 2011 World Cup And Twitter Erupts With Joy!

Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni are two of the best finishers the world has ever seen. The dynamic duo has taken India to victory umpteen times in the last decade. However, with Yuvi getting diagnosed with cancer and getting in and out of the team and Mahi gearing down his natural game, India couldn’t witness the genius of the two on the cricket field together.

With Yuvraj making a grand comeback into the team and Mahi leaving captaincy, India was hoping to see another magical Yuvi-Mahi innings and the two delivered it to perfection against England in the second ODI at Cuttack.

Yuvraj Singh scored the 14th ODI century of his career. His last hundred came 6 years ago against West Indies in the 2011 World Cup. BCCI posted this Twitter video of him celebrating after the knock.
