Yuvraj Singh had to douse a fire lit by his father Yograj Singh on Monday, when the latter slammed India captain MS Dhoni alleging that he has a personal problem with his son.

“I want to know what is MS Dhoni’s problem with my son, he played for nation even while suffering from cancer,” Yograj said hinting that Dhoni had a role to play in Yuvraj’s snub for the ongoing World Cup.

“I was shocked when I learnt that Yuvraj Singh was not in the World Cup squad. If MS Dhoni is having personal issues with my son, I won’t do anything, God will do justice. He (Dhoni) told the selectors that Yuvraj was not needed in the squad,” said Yograj.

Yuvraj, however, was not even selected in the preliminary squad of 30 probables for the World Cup. There was a lot of hue and cry over it but the selectors said they have to move on. Along with Yuvraj, Virender Sehwag, Harbhajan Singh, Gautam Gambhir and Zaheer Khan were also overlooked. All of them were part of India’s victorious 2011 World Cup squad.

Singh added that he wouldn’t be happier if India got home the World Cup, but was deeply saddened that a captain as great as Dhoni could stoop this low.

Yuvraj Singh too spoke soon after his father saying that his dad got “carried away.”
