This is the wierdest thing I have ever heard. Bradman is considered as the greatest sportsman ever played in any game (For details search Don Bradman in Wikipedia). It is ture that Yuvraj has played some good innings. But he is no comparison to Bradman. I think this is the problem with the Indian cricket team. They get too carried away by winning

It's not the cricket team's problem. It's his dad who said it. Even your dad may say the same thing about you if you do well.
Read this personal profile of Yuvi's father ..He looks like a jerk ...
In 2004 Yograj Singh was sentenced to six months in jail for "negligent and rash driving" in respect of an accident in 2000 in Chandigarh in which a scooter rider was seriously injured [4]. Yograj was one of the accused in Jessica Lal murder case, when the celebrity bar-tender was shot inside a crowded south Delhi restaurant. Yograj was alleged to have helped the main accused to flee, and later helped him to disappear for a few days [5].
After his retirement from cricket he became an actor, appearing primarily in Punjabi films. He has appeared in about 150 films. He is best known as a villain for his performance in %u201CBadla Jatti Da%u201D.

Man u didnt understand what he ment. It is always that anybody who plays cricket will like to be like bradman/richards/sachin. It is not something bad to talk on this. Only this sprit will bring a cricketer to great extent. and also, why not, let him try, after all bradman is also human being.

If you read carefully,he has said that he should be remembered as second Bradman.Now why should a player be remembered as a second bradman,if he has not dominated the opposition through out his career(noy just in few tournaments).It is a wishful thinking by a father and a sort of blessing for his son.

dude, chandramouly, he meant after Yuvi's 2 innings in T20 he has reached the scales of Bradman. Utter non sense. Yograj was his kinda brat even in his playing days n was thrown out of the team for false reasons.....
Bradman...that's just out of the world...if there is one player alive today who is worth the comparison is none other than the little master...(remeber bradman's words about sachin)....anyways congrags to yuvarj and the whole indian team....
the media has no right to talkt to parents of any player ,that too who is of college team standard. mr media pl stop doing these kind of interviews with just tom dick n harry,every parent want his child to come up in life doesnt mean pura shahar mae danoora peetoo aur woh bi bina mathlab ke. agar yuvi ko broadman se compare kiya tho baki log umrigar,manjrekar vishvanth,gavaskar,contractor,tendulkar ka baap log should be on cloud nine,so media ko kam dandha ni hi tho gar mae baito .

You are correct dude..He has gone little crazy over his sons success.. Yuvi is good hitter and you know still he struggles to play test matches and look how he plays against Spinners ..he is just good one day player .. ..20-20 is known to be sloggers game ..so he is one big slogger ..dont make him in comparison with likes of sachin and rahul dravid also ..foget bradman..
