A year ago, Yuvraj Singh announced his retirement from international cricket. The former Indian left-hander went on to conduct a press conference wherein he made the announcement. The fans cannot still forget the day when Yuvi hung up his boots and thus took to social media to recall the day. The fans trend #MissYouYuvi on social media and they posted tweets on how the former Indian left-hander inspired them not only in cricket but also in real life. Back then, Yuvraj Singh had made a short film where he was seen touching his jersey for the last time and then seen moving on. Yuvraj Singh Announces Retirement From International Cricket.
Yuvraj Singh had made his ODI debut in 2000 against Kenya. His Test debut came three years later against New Zealand. Yuvi donned the Indian colours for the last time in 2017 against West Indies. He had played a vital role in making India lift the 2011 World Cup and had been the highest scorer then. Needless to say with an immense contribution the fans also would not forget him so easily. Thus, let's check out a few tweets on how they miss Yuvraj.
