India’s legendary Yuvraj Singh is receiving praise from Abhishek Sharma’s ongoing Asia Cup 2025 due to his brilliant batting performance.
Before being selected in the Indian team and turning things in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Abhishek worked with Yuvraj, and played an important role in his development as a batsman. Abhishek is currently the number one T20 batsman in the world, and his stock is growing only with each passing day.
Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill is the prudent of Yuvraj
In the ongoing Asia Cup, Abhishek has been a Shining star of India. While no other batsman has managed to score more than 160 runs, he has already scored 248 runs in 5 innings, including two fifties. He has scored his run on a surprising strike-by 206.67 at an average of about 50.
Apart from Abhishek, India’s Test Captain Shubman Gill was also taught by Yuvraj Singh during his early days in international cricket.

Prabhasimran Singh, Priyash Arya forced Yuvraj
After Abhishek and Gill, two more young batsmen – Prabhasimran Singh and Priyanus Arya – have contacted Yuvraj Singh to develop their game. The two batsmen played and were impressed for Punjab Kings in this year’s IPL.
Playing in the IPL for the first time, Arya raced the field. He scored 475 runs with the help of a century and two fifties and played an important role in Punjab Kings’ runner-up Finnish.
Arya made headlines for the first time last year when he hit sixes sixes in the over in the Delhi Premier League. On the other hand, Prabhasimran scored 549 runs and was the second biggest run-scorer for him.
Yuvraj has taken both high-lined batsmen under his wing and wants to develop them as world-class batsmen. Punjab Kings recently posted a picture of Yuvraj training to both their batsmen with caption: “Learning from OG”

Yuvraj Singh’s brilliant career
Yuvraj Singh is widely considered one of India’s largest match winners. Southpo was the backbone of India’s batting department in both limited overs format. He represented India in 40 tests, 304 Odis and 58 T20s. An explosive middle-order batsman, Yuvraj was also an easy left-handed spinner and a world-class fielder.
He played a big role in India’s winning campaign during the 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 World Cup. In the T20 World Cup, he hit Stuart Broad, scoring fifty off 12 balls before scoring fifty runs to 12-goals before breaking just 30 balls against Australia in the semi-finals.
In the 2011 World Cup, Yuvraj was postponed for the tournament player for his amazing all-round display.
