Former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh might have bid adieu to the game. However, he’s still relishing the old memories from his playing days. Recently, the southpaw went down memory lane and shared a throwback picture with his former teammates. The snap consisted the likes of Harbhajan Singh, VVS Laxman, Virender Sehwag, Dinesh Mongia and Mohammad Kaif. However, Yuvraj wasn’t sure that the click was taken from which tour as he asked in the caption “what tour is this?” Nevertheless, former Indian captain and current BCCI president helped the two time World Cup-winning all-rounder by telling him that the picture is from India’s 2002 Tour of England.
