Yuvraj Singh and MS Dhoni were two of the most influential figures in India’s middle order during their white-ball cricket careers from 2000 to 2017. Yuvraj made his international debut in 2000, with Dhoni following in 2004. Together, they played key roles in several of India’s most memorable victories, forming a strong on-field partnership that helped the team clinch two major ICC titles.
In the 2007 T20 World Cup, Dhoni led the Indian team as captain, while Yuvraj delivered some of his finest performances, including the iconic six sixes in an over against Stuart Broad in a match against England. That tournament marked a turning point in Indian cricket, being the country’s first global title since the 2002 shared Champions Trophy.
The duo continued to shine in subsequent years, with their crowning achievement being India’s 2011 ODI World Cup triumph. Dhoni famously sealed the win with a six in the final, while Yuvraj was named Player of the Tournament for his outstanding contributions with both bat and ball, remarkably, while unknowingly battling cancer.
Yuvraj Singh speaks on not being invited to MS Dhoni’s wedding
Despite their close camaraderie on the field, recent comments suggest their personal relationship may have changed. In a video that went viral on social media, Yuvraj revealed that he was not invited to Dhoni’s wedding in 2010.
He admitted feeling left out and jokingly said he would “return the favour” by not inviting Dhoni to his own wedding. While the remark seemed playful, it subtly pointed to a possible distance that had grown between the two over time.
Since retiring from international cricket, both players have moved on with their personal lives. Dhoni is happily married to Sakshi, and their daughter Ziva is a popular presence on social media. Yuvraj married actress Hazel Keech, and the couple has a son.
Though their personal bond may have evolved, their shared legacy in Indian cricket remains unmatched. Fans continue to celebrate the memories they created together, recognizing that even as friendships shift, the impact of their contributions to the sport endures.
