Yuvraj Singh was a crucial player for India even in the 2007 World Cup win. He contributed towards the victory with his left-arm spin bowling and crucial knocks down the order with bat. He played a perfect role for India in the middle order. However, his form dipped after the 2011 World Cup. The cricketer faced an illness after the World Cup.
