“And I don’t think I had spoken to anyone about this in the World. I was the only person who was aware of that and this waiter said that I am a huge fan. And I have seen your batting, I rewind five-seven times and I watch every ball multiple times. And that’s why I thought whenever you wore an elbow guard your bat swing changed a bit. So, I said yes, you know you are the only person in the world who has figured out that. But you won’t believe that, after that I actually came back to the room from the ground. I carried my elbow guard and redesigned it, according to the correct size, the amount of padding and where the straps should be. And then I played, but he was the only one,” he added. Yuvraj Singh's 38th Birthday Celebrations in Thailand: Sachin Tendulkar, Harbhajan Singh, Ashish Nehra, Ajit Agarkar and Zaheer Khan To Make Yuvi's Day Special!.
