Yuvraj Singh’s father blames MS Dhoni for destroying son’s career

The father of former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh, Yograj Singh, has once again criticized MS Dhoni, stating he will never forgive the former Indian captain.

Singh frequently voices his discontent with Dhoni, claiming that the former captain ruined his son Yuvraj’s career.

“I won’t forgive MS Dhoni. He should look at his face in the mirror. He is a very big cricketer, but what he has done against my son, everything is coming out now; it can never be forgiven in life.

“I have never done two things in life - first, I have never forgiven anybody who has done wrong for me, and second, I have never hugged them in my life, be it my family members or my kids,” Yograj said while talking to Zee Switch YouTube channel.

He expressed that Yuvraj could have played for another four to five years and criticized the treatment his son received, emphasizing that he should be awarded the Bharat Ratna for playing through cancer.

“CSK lost IPL 2024. Why did they lose? It’s whatever you sow, so shall you reap. Yuvraj Singh is the ICC Ambassador, hats off to him! And this jealous Dhoni, where is he? He didn’t even shake hands with Yuvraj, and that is the reason why CSK failed this year,” Yograj had claimed in a viral video.

Singh has acknowledged Dhoni’s status as a great cricketer.

Previously, Yuvraj’s father has made several allegations against Dhoni regarding his son’s exclusion from the team.

Yuvraj famously hit six sixes in an over against Stuart Broad during the 2007 T20 World Cup and was diagnosed with cancer in 2011, yet he went on to help India win the World Cup and was named Player of the Tournament.

After recovering from cancer in 2012, Yuvraj returned to cricket and announced his retirement from international cricket in 2019.
