Yuvraj Singh: Currently, the World Championship of Legends 2024 is being played in England and in its eighth match, India Champions and Pakistan Champions were face to face in Birmingham. In this match, Team India had to face defeat by a huge margin of 68 runs.

In this match, both batting and bowling are responsible for India's defeat, but legendary all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, who is captaining India in this tournament, has given the reason for India's defeat.

India suffered a big defeat by 68 runs

If we talk about this match, then Team India had to face defeat by 68 runs. In this match, India's captain Yuvraj won the toss and decided to bowl first and his move backfired because Pakistani batsmen started thrashing Indian bowlers.

Kamran Akmal and Sharjeel Khan, who opened the innings for Pakistan in this match, shared a 145-run partnership for the first wicket. They started thrashing the Indian bowlers right from the beginning and the Indian champions went on the backfoot. Akmal scored 77 runs, while Khan scored 72 runs and they scored 243 runs and after this India had to face defeat by 68 runs.

Yuvraj Singh held them responsible for the defeat

Speaking in the post match presentation, Indian captain Yuvraj Singh explained the reason for the defeat and said that “I want to give full credit to Pakistan for this. They batted very well and were better than us in bowling as well. If I may say so, they were better than us in all departments.”

Yuvraj credited Pakistan for their victory and said that they were better than India in bowling, batting and fielding. In this match, Indian bowlers looked helpless and surrendered before the Pakistani batsmen.

Three bowlers gave away a lot of runs in this match including Irfan Pathan who gave away 25 runs in one over, Harbhajan Singh who gave away 27 runs in 2 overs and Dhawal Kulkarni who gave away 49 runs in 4 overs and captain Yuvraj might target all three as he has held the bowlers responsible.

Indian bowlers conceded a lot of runs

If we talk about India's bowling, the Indian bowlers gave away a lot of runs. The economy of no Indian bowler was less than 9. Not only this, Pakistani batsmen conceded 25 runs in a single over of Irfan Pathan. India's batting could not do anything special and only Suresh Raina scored a half-century and scored 52 runs.
