Yuvraj Singh: ICC has announced Yuvraj Singh as ambassador for this year’s upcoming T20 World Cup.
T20 World Cup will be held after the ongoing IPL series. To be clear, the T20 World Cup series is going to start in 36 days. ICC is planning to host this T20 World Cup series which is going to be held in West Indies and America in a very grand manner.
In this case, since this series is going to be held in America and West Indies countries, in order to popularize American cricket, Usain Bolt, an athlete from Jamaica, who is famous in America, was first appointed as ambassador. He was followed by former West Indies all-rounder Chris Gayle as ambassador.
Now Yuvraj Singh has been appointed Ambassador for India after him. He spoke about this yesterday after announcing Yuvraj Singh as ambassador. He said, “Playing T20 matches is one of the memories I will never forget, including hitting 6 sixes in one over.
Also, I am very proud to be a part of this upcoming T20 World Cup. This will be the biggest T20 series ever. Especially the match between India and Pakistan will be the biggest cricket match of the year.
I see it as an honor to be a part of this T20 series and to see the best players playing at the new ground”, said Yuvraj Singh. It is noteworthy that Yuvraj Singh played a great role in winning the T20I World Cup in 2007.
