A montage of Yuvraj Singh celebrating a goal at Old Trafford was displayed, and the two-time World Cup winner was quizzed how he felt playing at cricket at the Old Trafford Cricket Stadium. Yuvi spoke about the ice-cold weather and heavy winds meant that catching balls and breaking his fingers was a difficult process. Gavaskar also mentioned that Dimitar Berbatov also looked like a younger version of The Godfather Part III star Andy Garcia, to which Wes Brown responded saying 'Here we go again' citing that it was a running joke between the pair.

Yuvraj Singh also spoke about the time he sat next to Sachin Tendulkar in the team bus. The 2011 World Cup Man of the tournament said that Tendulkar was his hero and told his manager he could not sit beside him, but had to finally give in because they were part of the same team. While the two were seated next to each other, Yuvraj Singh opened his kit bag which had a photo of Sachin himself, to which the Master Blaster cheekily replied saying it was a nice picture and whether he knew the identity of the person.

Brown also had a stint with Kerala Blasters in 2017-19 and claimed that he loved the spicy food in the country, unlike Silvestre.
