**NEW DELHI** – Former Indian cricketer Yograj Singh, father of Yuvraj Singh, has made explosive revelations in a recent interview with Samdish Bhatia on the YouTube show “Unfiltered by Samdish.” Singh confessed to planning to shoot Kapil Dev, claiming he went to the latter’s house with a pistol after being dropped from the North Zone team. He only abandoned his plan when Kapil Dev emerged from his home with his mother.
Singh attributes his removal from the team to alleged political maneuvering by Kapil Dev and Bishan Singh Bedi, fueled by his close friendship with Sunil Gavaskar. He stated that this incident led him to quit cricket, focusing instead on his son’s career. He also leveled harsh criticism at the late Bishan Singh Bedi, accusing him of conspiring against him.
The interview also saw Singh make a significant about-face regarding MS Dhoni. Having previously blamed Dhoni for Yuvraj’s early retirement and vowing never to forgive him, Singh now praised the former captain for his fearless attitude and cricketing acumen. He specifically highlighted Dhoni’s ability to read the wicket and his unwavering composure under pressure.
Singh further boasted about taunting Kapil Dev after India’s 2011 World Cup victory, highlighting his son’s success as a stark contrast to Kapil Dev’s perceived failures. He even made a sarcastic remark about Kapil Dev’s inability to have a son.
The interview has sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, with Singh’s confession of his plan to kill Kapil Dev drawing significant attention and raising serious questions. The 66-year-old, known for his outspoken nature, continues to coach aspiring cricketers.
