Pune Warriors India was the 2nd IPL franchise Yuvraj Singh had been a part of. After being dropped from the Punjab side, Yuvi was bought by the Pune based franchise in the year 2011 and was also elected as the captain of their side. One of the main reasons behind this was the form which Yuvraj had in the ICC World Cup 2011.

He smashed 343 runs in 14 matches that season but failed in terms of captaincy as Pune finished 9th on the table and were just ahead of Delhi Capitals. Singh did not play the next IPL season owing to his serious medical conditions.

The Punjab star made a roaring comeback to IPL in 2013 after beating cancer. However, he scored 238 runs in 13 matches which led to a downfall in his career. Pune did not play in the IPL after 2013, meaning that Singh was in the auction once again.
