One of the finest cricketers India ever had, Yuvraj Singh is a brilliant batsman and a more than handy bowler but he is also one of the most athletic fielders that India has ever seen. Fielding predominantly at point and covers, Yuvraj Singh has saved some crucial runs for India and has also taken some sensational catches throughout his career.

With 94 catches in ODIs, Yuvraj is in 6th place amongst Indians with most catches in ODIs. Some of his marvelous catches include his brilliant one-handed catch against Bangladesh in 2004 and his terrific running catch against South Africa in the 2002 Champions Trophy.

Besides taking catches, Yuvraj Singh also has a very accurate throw and has caused numerous run-outs throughout his career, perhaps the most notable one of them being his Jonty Rhodes-type run-and-throw the ball towards the stumps in the 2008 IPL which helped his team Kings XI Punjab defeat the Mumbai Indians by a run.
