Yuvraj Singh's quotes iconic Bollywood song response to critics questioning Kohli, Rohit's T20I return ahead of WC


The inclusion of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the T20I squad, just ahead of the World Cup in the USA and the West Indies, has sparked considerable debate. Opinions are divided, with some supporting the decision made by the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee, while others question the move, particularly in light of the criticism the veteran players faced after India's semifinal exit in the 2022 T20 World Cup.

Despite the skepticism, Yuvraj Singh, the legendary cricketer, responded to the critics in a unique manner, channeling the spirit of Kishore Kumar. It's worth noting that this marks the first time in 14 months that Kohli and Rohit have been named in a T20I squad for India, with Rohit making his comeback in the series opener against Afghanistan in Mohali. Kohli, who missed the initial tie due to his daughter's birthday, is set to return for the second game in Indore.

The decision to bring back the experienced duo has led to extensive discussions, with many experts and veterans questioning its progressive nature, especially considering India's recent emphasis on nurturing young talent. Yuvraj Singh, however, seemed unswayed by the debates, expressing his sentiment through the timeless words of an iconic Hindi song from the movie Amar Prem: "Kuchh toh log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna."
