Yuvraj Singh admits managing personal and professional life is difficult at times

Maintaining a balance between your personal and professional life can be hard when you are constantly on the move and it is no different for Yuvraj Singh. Observing his lifestyle, the Kings XI player said exchanging between roles within a short span can be difficult at times and it takes a dedicated team to ensure he is on track.

"It takes a dedicated team to ensure I am on track with all my responsibilities. Juggling between different roles can be difficult at times, but I am very aware of how lucky I am to have all of this, I have no problem with my marriage whatsoever," the 36-year-old said, reported by Cricketnext.

Yuvraj was diagnosed with cancer in 2011 and made a successful comeback to the Indian team in 2013 but inconsistent performances with the bat meant that he could not regain his place in the side. However, he did make a comeback to the National side in 2017 and even managed to score a century against England which inturn helped in booking a place for himself in the Indian Champions Trophy squad. Even though average performances saw him being dropped from the side again, Yuvraj believes every day is an opportunity for him. 

"I look forward to being motivated while I play, and I take each day as an opportunity to do more, give more. I feel blessed to have the love and best wishes of fans and supporters." 

Yuvraj is currently busy with the ongoing Indian Premier League where he has contracted for Kings XI Punjab. There have been some questions surrounding the number of foreign players allowed in the squads of teams because it helps top professionals to understand Indian conditions better which in turn results in foreign players performing better when they arrive with their respective national sides. However, Yuvraj believes that exposure to top notch international players has helped young Indian players learn the game from the best as well. 

"IPL was conceived as a format that allowed the best of cricketing talent to compete with each other and entertain cricket fans. So over the last 11 seasons definitely there are more non-Indian players who now understand subcontinental pitches or our bowling and can adapt better when we are playing each other's national sides. But the reverse is also true," said Yuvraj.

"We have a different comfort level and, all in all, a much better equation as players of the game. Obviously when we don the national colours, we are all playing for our country and that is the passion that drives us to give it our best."
