Yuvraj Singh, one of India\u2019s greatest limited overs cricketers, is seriously contemplating retirement from international cricket and pursue a\u00a0 freelance career in ICC approved foreign Twenty20 leagues.
The Punjab left-hander would make a final decision only if he gets permission from the BCCI. It has been learnt that Yuvraj has come to terms with the fact that he is unlikely to play for India.
\u201cYuvraj is thinking of calling it quits from international and first class cricket. He would like to speak to the BCCI and get more clarity on plying his trade in tournaments like GT20 Euro T20 Slam in Ireland and Holland as he has offers.
Recently, Irfan Pathan put his name in the draft for the Caribbean Premier League but Pathan junior is an active first class player, who didn\u2019t seek permission from the BCCI.\u201cIrfan was told to withdraw his name from the draft. As far as Yuvraj is concerned, we need to check the rules. Even if he retires from first class
cricket, he will still be an active T20 player registered under BCCI. The rule needs to be checked,\u201d a senior BCCI functionary said.Yuvraj played for Mumbai Indians in this year\u2019s IPL but didn\u2019t get many chances which might have prompted him to seriously think about future plans.

The leagues like one in Canada and \nthe new venture in Dublin and Amstelveen can gain a lot of mileage if \nYuvraj plays in the league.There is a school of thought that if Zaheer \nKhan and Virender Sehwag can be a part of a T10 venture in Dubai then \nwhy can\u2019t Yuvraj bewed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
