MS Dhoni Destroyed my Son’s Career: Yograj Singh
2 min readMahendra Singh Dhoni, the captain of the 2011 World Cup, has come under assault once more from Yograj Singh, the father of Yuvraj Singh and a former cricket player. On public forums, Yograj has frequently made disparaging remarks about Dhoni and charged him with ruining Yuvraj’s career. Nonetheless, Yuvraj has refrained from making any such assertions and has only ever spoken well about his former colleague and captain. Yuvraj was crucial to India’s historic victories in the 2011 ODI World Cup and the 2007 T20 World Cup under skipper Virat Kohli. Under Dhoni’s leadership, the left-handed all-rounder had his finest performance in international cricket.
During an interview with the Zee Switch YouTube channel, Yograj again accused Dhoni of ruining Yuvraj’s career and declared that he would never be able to forgive him.

Yuvraj should be awarded Bharat Ratna
“I will not pardon MS Dhoni. He ought to examine his reflection in the mirror. He is a professional cricket player, but all that he has done to harm my kid is now coming to light and can never be forgiven. Yograj revealed to the Zee Switch YouTube channel, “I have never hugged my family or my kids, and I have never forgiven anybody who has done wrong for me. These are the two things I have never done in my life.”
Furthermore, Yograj accused Dhoni of forcing Yuvraj to retire early when he could have easily played for another four to five years.
My kid might have played for four to five more years, but that man (MS Dhoni) has ruined his life. I challenge everyone to conceive a son that resembles Yuvraj. There won’t be another Yuvraj Singh, according to statements made in the past by Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir. Yograj continued, “India ought to give him the Bharat Ratna for overcoming cancer while competing and leading his nation to the World Cup.”
From 2000 to 2017, Yuvraj played in 402 international matches for India, amassing 11,178 runs. He smashed 17 hundreds and 71 fifties in various forms, concluding his career as one of the greatest players in Indian history. He competed for India in the 2002 ICC Champions Trophy (co-winners with Sri Lanka), the 2007 ICC T20 World Cup, and the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup.
