I may never play for India again: Yuvraj Singh

Yuvraj Singh

Admitting that there is a chance of him never representing Team India again, Yuvraj Singh has said that he will keep pushing himself irrespective of whether or not he gets included in the World Cup 2015 squad.

In an exclusive interview to Wisden India, Yuvraj said: "Of course, there is a possibility that I may never play for India again. I have considered that. But there is also the possibility that I might play for India again, and as long as I believe that I can come back and I have it in me, I'm going to keep pushing myself."

As good as ever fitness wise

The 32-year-old last represented India in an One Day International (ODI) in December 2013, against South Africa, and has been overlooked since then, with the likes of Ajnkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina laying strong claims to the available spots.

The left-hander said: “There will be anxiety because the World Cup is close by and there aren't too many opportunities in domestic games in the lead up. But, eventually, what can you do? I can only prepare as well as possible."

Yuvraj, however, feels that this is as good as he has ever been in terms of fitness levels. He said: "I've trained quite hard. It's been two years of hard work. I've never felt so good. I'm in much better shape than I was when I played the 2011 World Cup. I promise you that."
