Left-handed Yuvraj was the costliest buy in this year’s IPL auction at Rs 16 crore. But he could not make a big impact in the league as his team Daredevils failed to make the play-offs. His last game in this season’s IPL was on May 17 against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Bengaluru.
Yuvraj has not played for India since April 2014:
Yuvraj has not played for India since April 2014. Since then, there has been no match practice for Yuvraj as he is not part of India A or the senior squad which is currently in Sri Lanka. He has featured in 40 Tests, 293 ODIs and 40 T20Is.
