If India Coach, Yograj Singh Demands 20km Daily Runs For MI Legend
Yograj Singh recently shared his thoughts on what he would do if given the opportunity to coach Team India.
Amid ongoing speculation about senior opener Rohit Sharma's future in Test cricket, Yograj Singh, father of former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh, has made a striking statement.
He shared his thoughts on what he would do if given the opportunity to coach Team India.
"If you make me the coach of the Indian team, I will use these same players to transform it into a side that will be unbeatable for ages. Who will bring out their capabilities? Because you are always ready to throw them out of the team — drop Rohit Sharma or drop Kohli — but why? They are going through a bad phase and I want to tell my kids that I am with you. I'll tell them let's play Ranji Trophy, or Rohit bhagenge run 20 km roz. I will tell them I love them. Nobody does that. These players are diamonds. You don't throw them out. I will be like their father. I have never differentiated between Yuvraj and the others, not even Dhoni. But what is wrong is wrong," Yograj Singh said on Taruwar Kohli's podcast.
Yograj Singh briefly coached Arjun Tendulkar, following which Sachin Tendulkar's son went on to score a century in the Ranji Trophy.
"If Arjun Tendulkar comes to me now, I will make him the world's greatest batter in six months. No one knows the potential he has with the bat. He was with me for 12 days, he scored a century in Ranji Trophy debut. Did anybody realise?" Yograj said.
"Goa's team was here. Sachin and Yuvraj told me to take Arjun Tendulkar under my wings. He stayed here with me for 10-12 days. I thought, 'he is such a great batter, kaha isko bowling mein laga rakkha hai?' Why are you wasting him in bowling?' As a batting all-rounder, he will be fine."
