All-rounder Yuvraj Singh was bought by the Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League 2015 auctions for a sensational Rs 16 crore on Monday. Yuvraj was sold to Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 14 crore in the 2014 auctions, making him the highest paid player in the glittering T20 tournament then. The Punjab all-rounder in a sense, broke his own record.
Yuvraj was relieved of his duties from RCB after a mediocre season in 2014. India'[s 2011 World Cup hero had to brace for more disappointment when he was ignored from the 2015 World Cup side, with the selectors preferring younger players. However, the massive amount he managed in the Monday auctions should give him a lot of confidence in his own game.
