Cricket Desk: Former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh recently made his comeback to competitive cricket when he represented India Legends in the Road Safety Series 2021. The 39-year-old had a spectacular run in the tournament and smashed 194 runs in 6 innings. Yuvraj batted at a strike-rate of 170.17 and smashed 17 sixes, most in the tournament.

During the league stage game against West Indies Legends, he turned back the clock by smashing four back-to-back sixes. He also shone in the final and scored 60 off 41 in India's score of 181/4. A couple of days after the final of the Raod Safety Series, Yuvraj underwent a makeover and stunned the fans with his new look on Instagram. "Yes or no or maybe?" he wrote on social media.

India opener Shikhar Dhawan and Bollywood actress Kim Sharma were impressed by Yuvraj's look and reacted to the post. "Pajhi poorer Badshaah lag rahe ho," Dhawan wrote. Yuvraj's new look has been a hit on social media and the post has garnered nearly 2.25 lakh likes in an hour.

Yuvraj now only plays foreign leagues and will stay off the field for a few months. The India legend isn't part of ECB's The Hundred, which kicks off in July. There were reports of him looking for an Australian club for the Big Bash League last year and it remains to be seen if he becomes the first-ever Indian to take part in the Australian league in 2021/22.

There are several leagues before BBL and he might be interested in taking part in those. Yuvraj had retired from international cricket and IPL in 2019. As per BCCI's rules, an Indian player can only take part in foreign leagues after retiring from Indian cricket.
