The process of controversial statements of Yograj Singh, father of former star all -rounder of Team India Yuvraj Singh, continues. Yograj, who often targeted veterans like former captain MS Dhoni and Kapil Dev, has now attacked Virat Kohli. Former Indian fast bowler Yograj while talking about his son Yuvraj’s friends in an interview said that everyone was afraid of him because he was the most talented. Not only this, he told all the fellow players of Yuvraj including Kohli-Dhoni to stab her in the back.
In an interview on a YouTube channel, Yograj Singh was asked whether Virat Kohli could do anything for Yuvraj as captain? After Dhoni in 2017, when Kohli became the captain of the ODI and T20 team, Yuvraj got only a few opportunities and then he was out of the team after the Champions Trophy in the same year. All this happened at a time when there was talk of deep friendship between Yuvraj and Kohli.
But Yograj believes that Kohli was also not his son’s friends. In the interview, the former Indian pacer said on the question of Yuvraj-Kohli’s friendship and stress in it, “There are no friends on the stairs of success, you are alone. In this life where there is money and success, there is no friend. I said this to Yuvraj. Take out a friend.”
Yograj told that Yuvraj was only one friend in the Indian team in so many years and he was Sachin Tendulkar. Yuvraj’s father said, “The only friend who belongs to Yuvraj, who likes him, is the greatest player and the great man Sachin Tendulkar, who considered Yuvraj like his brother. He is the only person who wants to see everyone successful.”
Along with being afraid of Yuvraj Singh’s talent, Yograj described everyone as a cheater. He further said, “There are no friends in the stairs of success, money and fame. There are always people who are stabbing on the back. There are people who want to show you down. Everyone was afraid of Yuvraj because he would not snatch my chair because he was such a great player, which God had built. He was all of the great players, which was afraid, all the players including Dhoni were afraid.”
