Yuvraj Singh's father Yograj Singh is always in controversies due to his statements. Yograj, who often targets MS Dhoni, this time also targeted Virat Kohli and said that everyone was afraid of Yuvraj Singh.

The series of controversial statements by former Team India star all-rounder Yuvraj Singh's father Yograj Singh continues. Yograj, who often targets veterans like former captain MS Dhoni and Kapil Dev, has now attacked Virat Kohli. Former Indian fast bowler Yograj, while talking about his son Yuvraj's friends in an interview, said that everyone was afraid of him because he was the most talented. Not only this, he described all Yuvraj's teammates including Kohli-Dhoni as backstabbers.

In an interview given on a YouTube channel, Yograj Singh was asked whether Virat Kohli could have done something for Yuvraj as a captain? When Kohli became the captain of the ODI and T20 team in 2017 after Dhoni, Yuvraj got only a few opportunities and then he was out of the team after the Champions Trophy that year. All this happened at a time when there were talks of a deep friendship between Yuvraj and Kohli.

There is no friendship between Kohli and Yuvraj

But Yograj believes that Kohli was also not a friend of his son. In the interview, the former Indian pacer, on the question of Yuvraj-Kohli friendship and the tension in it, said, "There are no friends on the steps of success, you are alone. In this life where there is money and success, there are no friends. I told this to Yuvraj. Pick out one friend and give it to me."

Yograj told that in all these years in the Indian team, Yuvraj had only one friend and that was Sachin Tendulkar. Yuvraj's father said, "The only friend who Yuvraj has, who also likes him, is the greatest player and great human being Sachin Tendulkar, who considered Yuvraj as his brother. He is the only person who wants to see everyone successful."

'Everyone is a backstabber'

Along with accusing Yuvraj Singh of being afraid of his talent, Yograj called everyone a betrayer. He further said, "There are no friends on the ladder of success, money and fame. There are always backstabbers. There are always people who want to show you down. Everyone was afraid of Yuvraj that he might snatch my chair because he was such a great player, who was created by God. He was one of the great players, whom everyone was afraid of, all the other players including Dhoni were afraid."
