"You know how I feel inside": Yuvraj Singh responds to Rohit's heart-warming message

India opener Rohit Sharma on Monday took to twitter to haile Yuvraj Singh's roller-coaster career, saying that he deserved a better send-off after 17 years of top-flight cricket.

After 25 years in and around the 22 yards and almost 17 years of international cricket, swashbuckling batsman Yuvraj Singh on Monday announced his retirement from not just his international but IPL career as well. India opener Rohit Sharma on Monday took to twitter to haile Yuvraj Singh's roller-coaster career, saying that he deserved a better send-off after 17 years of top-flight cricket. "You don't know what you got till its gone. Love you brotherman. You deserved a better send off," wrote the Indian vice-captain on Twitter. You know how I feel inside ! Love u brothaman you go be a legend," Yuvraj Singh said in his reply to Rohit Sharma's tweet. Former captain Sourav Ganguly, under whom Yuvraj enjoyed plenty of success, wrote on the social networking site, "Dear Yuv .. every good thing comes to an end .. I tell u this was a marvellous thing..u were like my brother very dear.. and now after u finish even dearer.. the entire country will be proud of u . Love u lots..fantastic career." The stylish left-hander is among the Indian greats who did not get a farewell game after contemporaries Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman and Gautam Gambhir. After he announced his retirement in Mumbai on Monday, Yuvraj revealed that he was promised a farewell game by the BCCI provided he failed the 'Yo Yo' fitness test. However, he passed it and the swansong never happened. The 37-year-old last played for India in June 2017.
