Yuvraj Singh, who won his own battle against cancer in 2012, is currently going through a lean patch in his career. In IPL 2018, Yuvraj has not played upto his potential. In the 7 matches he featured in, Yuvraj has just managed to score 64 runs with 20 as his highest. KXIP bought Yuvraj Singh at his base price of Rs 2 crore during the players’ auction held in Bengaluru earlier this year.
Meanwhile, KXIP are at Number 3 on the points table with 12 points in 10 games they have played so far. They need to win atleast three more matches to fix their place in the playoffs.
