Cricketer Yuvraj Singh shares inside details about his stint at Kings XI Punjab during the Indian Premier League (IPL) on the YouTube channel, Sportscreen.

“I wanted to run away from Kings XI Punjab … the management didn’t like me there … they did nothing I asked them to do … and when I left they bought all the players I had been asking them to. I love Punjab but I did not like the running of the franchise,” the former India star said.

Yuvraj was an ace performer for India in the 2007 WT20 and the 2011 ICC World Cup.

He was also part of the teams that played in the final of the 2014 ICC WT20 and the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
