He pinpointed the issue of injuries in the middle order as a significant cause for concern and lamented India’s failure to secure a World Cup title in recent times.
Analyzing India’s middle-order struggles, Yuvraj emphasized the need for a batsman who can handle pressure effectively. He suggested that Rishabh Pant, who often occupies the fourth position in his IPL franchise, should be given the same role in the national squad.
