Father-Son duos who have played Cricket for India
9) Yograj and Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj Singh is a cult figure of Indian cricket. Yuvraj became the epitome of the modern day cricketer in the early 2000s. A hard hitting middle order batsman, a brilliant fielder and a better than average bowler.
However, much less known is the fact that Yuvraj’s father, Yograj, played a single test match for India in New Zealand in 1980-81. He also played a handful of ODIs on the same tour. He has gained fame lately for his acting and sensational tweets targeting MS Dhoni.
Yuvraj, meanwhile, starred in India’s victories at the 2007 ICC World T20 and 2011 ICC World Cup. The southpaw has been one of India’s best limited over cricketers. He has also played 40 test matches, albeit with modest success.
