IPL 2025, Yuvraj Singh: Ricky Ponting, who coached Delhi Capitals last season, has indicated that the team is now looking for an Indian coach. Therefore, the discussion of Yuvraj Singh’s name is intensified. According to media reports, the franchise is in talks with Yuvraj Singh.
IPL 2025, Yuvraj Singh: Preparations for IPL 2025 are in full swing. Team India’s star all-rounder Yuvraj Singh may be seen in a new role in the next season. Last month, news came that Yuvraj is in the race to replace Ashish Nehra as the coach of Gujarat Titans, but the latest report claims that he may join Delhi Capitals. This news has come to the fore because last season Delhi’s coach Ricky Ponting and the franchise have now parted ways. Delhi Capitals have severed ties with Ponting.
Why did Ricky Ponting separate?
Actually, former Australian captain Ricky Ponting left the post of head coach of Delhi Capitals last month. He was associated with this franchise for 7 seasons. Under his coaching, the team has failed to make it to the playoffs for the last three seasons. Therefore, now their paths have separated.
Yuvraj does not have coaching experience, but…
Yuvraj Singh has no prior coaching experience in IPL or domestic cricket, but he has served as a mentor to Indian cricketers like Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma, who have made a big name for themselves at the highest level. So there is a possibility that he may replace Ricky Ponting as the coach of Delhi Capitals next season.
Last IPL was played in 2019
If Yuvraj Singh becomes the coach of the Delhi team, this will be his first mission as a coach. Yuvi played IPL from 2008 to 2019. He played the last season for Mumbai in 2019. Mumbai won its fourth title that season.
India has got 2 World Cups
Yuvraj, who played a key role in helping India win the 2007 T20 World Cup and the 2011 ODI World Cup, retired from international cricket in 2019 after winning the IPL title with Mumbai Indians.
Yuvraj Singh played for these teams in IPL
Yuvraj Singh, who rocked the IPL for 12 years, has played for Punjab Kings (formerly Kings XI Punjab), Pune Warriors India, Delhi Capitals (formerly Delhi Daredevils), Royal Challengers Bangalore, Sunrisers Hyderabad and MI.
