Yuvraj slams Indian team's planning for 2019 World Cup

Former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh slammed the Indian team management for getting it "completely wrong" at the 2019 World Cup, stressing that an inexperienced middle-order worked against the team's chances where Virat Kohli and boys were shown the door in the semi-final against New Zealand.

Speaking at Agenda AajTak, the World Cup winner said India lacked clarity when it came to picking a middle-order that could have complimented the quality top-order.

"I don't think they were looking for me (middle-order spot). More than me not being there, I was very disappointed with what happened with Ambati Rayudu. He was our No. 4 batsman for more than a year. Even in New Zealand, in the last game, I think he got 90 and won the Man of the Match. And then you're playing Australia and going to the World Cup," Yuvraj Singh said.

"When we were going to play the 2003 World Cup, the team that played the tournaments in the lead-up, we almost played with the same team. We had decent experience, me and Mohammad Kaif played about 35-40 games. Our top-order was highly experienced and the middle order was decently experienced," he said.
