Yuvraj Singh keen on coaching than commentating

Recently, Yuvraj Singh was involved in an Instagram live session with former England captain Kevin Pietersen.

Kevin Pietersen told Yuvraj Singh that he is more relevant to the game as he has recently retired. He added that the former India all-rounder can bring so much experience and knowledge to the viewers because he knows how the game is being played. The 38-year old's freshness will let people know what players are exactly thinking these days.

Yuvraj Singh replied saying he would look forward to that. He added that he has played cricket for so many years so he wants to take a year's break. He said that he still wants to play some T20 tournaments.

He said that he just wants some time off and would rather become a father in the mean time. Yuvraj Singh further said that he is keen on coaching than commentating. He also said that he has good insight for limited-overs cricket and he can advise youngsters about the mental approach in different phases of the game.
