‘Bhai tu khud ek insaan se obsessed hai’ – Fans react as Gautam Gambhir believes Yuvraj Singh did not getting enough credit for India’s ODI World Cup 2011 win
Former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir has been vocal about some players not getting enough recognition for winning the 1983 and 2011 ODI World Cups. The latest name in his list was Player of the Tournament for the 2011 edition, Yuvraj Singh. In an interview with RevSports, the former raised a question about how much fans remember the contributions of Singh 12 years back.
“Do we celebrate Yuvraj Singh enough for what he did in the 2011 World Cup with all the health concerns he had? Do we celebrate Zaheer Khan’s opening spell enough? To start off a World Cup final with four maiden overs is incredible, and yet he isn’t given enough credit. Do we celebrate Sachin Tendulkar’s efforts enough? Yes, we celebrate him and the win, but how many remember he was the highest scorer in the World Cup with two hundreds to his name? Do we celebrate Harbhajan Singh’s spell against Pakistan in Mohali, or Suresh Raina’s innings against Australia in Ahmedabad and Pakistan in Mohali? Both these innings were match-winning efforts,” Gambhir said in an exclusive interview with RevSports.
One innings didn’t win India the trophy: Gautam Gambhir
The left-hander added that only MS Dhoni‘s innings didn’t lead to India winning the World Cup.
“While we celebrate MS Dhoni’s innings in the final, we should celebrate these other efforts as much. No one innings could win India the trophy. It was a collective effort, and should be celebrated as such. It is because of social media that we don’t do it. Social media is biased and we all know that. But social media doesn’t make it the truth. There is always a tendency on social media to celebrate individuals more than the team. In doing so, what happens is we don’t celebrate key performers who had as much a part to play. And that’s an issue for sure. All I will say is we should celebrate the entire team. While we celebrate Dhoni, we should also celebrate the others who all played very important roles in the Indian win.”
This is how Twitter reacted

Bilkul Sahih bol raha hai. That WC Final Innings was not even in his(Dhoni's) Top 50 ODI Innings.
Both World Cups, the primary contributor was Yuvraj Singh.
