“I Try To Implement Things I Learned From Bishan Singh Bedi”- Yuvraj Singh Discusses His Coaching Mantra

Yuvraj Singh, India’s cricket icon, says the late Bishan Singh Bedi’s teachings had a big impact on his coaching style. Bedi, a well-known left-arm spinner, was instrumental in developing Yuvraj’s career. Yuvraj is now paying it forward by mentoring brilliant Punjabi youth with similar values.

Yuvraj’s mentorship has produced tremendous outcomes, particularly with Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma. Shubman has evolved as one of the world’s most talented cricketers thanks to his tutelage. Meanwhile, Abhishek has been making waves with his performances, particularly in the short format. Yuvraj’s knowledge and Bedi’s beliefs have helped these young people improve their abilities.

Yuvraj is developing the next generation of cricket players in Punjab through his activities. He hopes to produce well-rounded cricket players by laying the foundation of Bedi’s beliefs.

A bright future for Indian cricket is assured by Yuvraj’s commitment to coaching and mentoring, which could result in the production of more outstanding players. He inspires and molds the careers of tomorrow’s players, therefore, his influence goes beyond his playing career.

‘Sir taught me a lot of good things’- Yuvraj Singh

The 2011 ODI World Cup Player of the Tournament said in an exclusive interview with IndiaToday. In that inspiration for his teaching philosophy comes from the lessons he picked up from Bedi, both on and off the field.

The qualities of discipline, mental toughness, and adaptability—qualities he picked up from Bedi—are also qualities Yuvraj underlined are important to him in addition to developing young players’ technical abilities.

“See, all the people I have learned from, whether it is in cricket or life, I try and implement in my coaching or mentoring. Sir taught me a lot of good things, I implement them. Cricket has changed a lot…Its been 5 years since I have retired. So you have to adapt to what is in demand today,” Yuvraj said.

Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill are two outstanding examples of cricketers who have benefited from Yuvraj’s coaching. They have become well-known under his direction, continuing the tradition of Indian cricket that Yuvraj and his mentor Bedi helped create.
