Asia Cup 2008

Yuvi’s mom to his rescue

Yuvraj Singh’s mother Shabnam Singh has lambasted Kapil Dev for his remarks about her son’s off field life.

Kapil Dev had recently criticized Yuvraj that he has many distractions off the field and instead of partying out, he should display his talent in the field where it will be more recognized and rewarded.

“I was indeed pained to read Kapil Dev’s highly provocative comment on Yuvi’s party life. As a mother, I am hurt mainly because Kapil has known Yuvi ever since he was born,” an enraged Shabnam said in a statement. “He has obviously gone by the media reporting which was proved wrong,” she added, referring to the late night party that Yuvraj allegedly attended during the Asia Cup.”

“All I want to remind Kapil that people who stay in glass house shouldn’t throw stones at others,” she fumed. “He should introspect his misdeeds during the time he played cricket. If he rewinds his life, he will find that he wasn’t an angel.”
