Platform was set and 66-4, was the usual situation for the Punjabi southpaw to come to crease and relish his old styles against his favorite opponents- the kangaroos, against whom, he has now his 4 official comebacks, last one of which was around December last year.
Ohh!!..who can forget that 35 ball blistering 70, but , this knock of 41 ball- 60 runs. will go down as the most cherished one, not to mention World Cup,big stage factor.
There goes a saying, “Wind is always on the side of ablest navigator”. After a poor streak of form in ODIs and being already dropped from test side, there were many speculations about Yuvraj’s future.
Few critics related this with his fight with Cancer, some found out his technical aspects disturbed and started writing him off. But, credit must go to Indian captain M S Dhoni, who backed his most destructive firepower to blast at right occasion, and it couldn’t have been much better, the knock coming on a big stage, WT20, and against Aussies, against whom his recent miseries started.
It was never a matter of technicality or past illness.It was always about self belief, even after failures, you have to keep going, work harder without thinking much about the results.
But, there are many milestones more to achieve for Yuvraj, since, this is just a new beginning, which will be more special if India wins the WT20- 2014, amid all controversies going around.
