good thing happened that he was dropped.keeping aus tour in mind and keeping the progress of few youngsters yuvi should only be left out.he dont deserve place.he cant handle pace and bounce in australian pitches .he can never dominate australia in australia.instead youngsters like pujara,rohit,rahane,kohli...etc should be given chance to get a place and represent the country.dont ever consider yuvi for tests specially abraod.selectors should keep this in mind
No one questions his ability in Limited overs. He is definitely not technically correct batsman. Thats essential for TEst play.
One day and T20, its hit or miss kind of logic. More often than not such batsman like yuvraj will survive in limited overs.
Similar batsmen who are unfit for Test are Raina, Virat Kholi, even for that matter Gambir. But Gambir is somehow managing well in Opening slot.
Guys to try out are Pujara,who is great in technique, Badri - Great in technique and temperament for test class
Bowling shld becompletely overhauled. NO more Zaks, Nehra and Munafs. Unfit lots. Cant live on laurals for ever. Newer lot seems good. They should persist with.
his career is over , and F! he cant comment, it is not like cricket, now a days cricketer if his small singer problem immediate rest, xray and so on, and you can play onthe other hand with all kinds disease and after go to abroad get treatment and then you can say i am touring and i tired, F! you cant do all gimmick, and in your life prime time only you can shine, 20-28 not like playing after becoming great grand father,

How do u get the Confidence 2 write such grammatically incorrect English.I woul like 2 request u 2 pl correct ur English first and then come onto Public Forums such as this !
players who play test cricket and you yuvi has failed many times... you do have the zeal but for t20 and some extent in one day ... you are not fit for test ... do not have patience to play test ... you have tried and used your influence on BCCI and media .. you can again try and get back in test side ... but that way you would be blocking true genuine test players...get it , it is not your cup of tea

It's too late Yuvi! You are unfit in Test cricket with such a fabulous backlift with lack of technique and patience. Your place is still there among greats of Indian cricket. Don't worry!
Test cricket is simply not for you. Because you lack technique and temperament to play patient and long innings in a situation when strike rate and run rate are not too important. You should be in the mouold of Sunny Gavaskar or sachin or Dravid to aspire for that. Compared to you, Gambhir is probably suited better.

but now Yuvi is matured and hopefully learnt his lessons.. he plays the game with passion, adds colour to the game..a good fielder, adds variety to bowling and in form an excellent batsman..all the best to him in test cricket..
You have been playing international cricket for 12 years, but despite getting numerous chances haven't bee able to cement your place in the test squad. Do you realistically think that you deserve to be a test cricketer? Giving any further chances to Yuvraj Singh in the test team is an injustice to other batsmen. I wonder why Rohit Sharma was not given the chance as he is a very capable batsman! Suresh Raina and Yuvraj Singh are just not cut out for test cricket. Selectors have realised this in the case of Raina, and the sooner they realise in the case of Yuvraj Singh the better.

what is he saying at this age? At the age of 30 he should think of retiring from test instead of cementing his place out there :).
