Yuvraj Singh could be classified as an all rounder in limited overs cricket, if only he could regain true batting form. His is a reversal of the classic Indian 'spindrift' syndrome afflicting players who start out as spin bowlers, but turn into batsmen over time, gradually forgetting their bowling. He made an explosive start in international cricket with his brilliant batting against Australia at Nairobi less than a year ago, but is today just about holding his place in the team because of his useful bowling. All he needs to do is put his head down until the runs start flowing. And as he proved with his brilliant unbeaten 98 against Sri Lanka in the Coca-Cola Cup, he certainly is one for the future.
