Former India National Cricket Team all-rounder Yuvraj Singh might acquire the coaching role in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. As per the reports in Sportstar, it is learned that Delhi Capitals (DC) have approached the 2011 World Cup winner for the role.
Delhi Capitals are very keen to bring Yuvraj Singh on the board. The franchise has struggled to get going in the last few seasons, and with them also releasing Ricky Ponting as the head coach, there might be a possibility that the former Indian all-rounder might come in as the head coach.
Earlier, there were reports that Yuvraj Singh is in talks with Gujarat Titans to take over the head coach position. This comes after it was learned that Ashish Nehra will part ways with the franchise. However, now it is learned that Nehra will continue in the role and the franchise is in talks with former India cricketers to fill in for Gary Kirsten, who is now the head coach of Pakistan.
Yuvraj was a great servant for the Indian National Cricket Team. His contribution to the team was sensational and he was one of the main reasons behind the team winning the T20 World Cup 2007 and the ICC World Cup 2011, where he was awarded the Player of the Tournament.
Yuvraj, who has featured in 40 Tests, 304 ODIs, and 58 T20Is, hasn’t had coaching experience but has helped a lot of young players including Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, and others. He recently also expressed his desire to coach the team once his kids grow up.
