Yuvraj Singh eyeing to make a debut in Australia’s Big Bash League: Reports

Indian cricket legend Yuvraj Singh is reportedly keen on becoming the first Indian to play in the Big Bash League – but is only receiving ‘modest’ interest from clubs.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India restricts active international or domestic players from appearing in overseas competitions, a move which protects the Indian Premier League but has stopped the BBL from hosting a single player from the country in the first nine seasons.

But 38-year-old Singh hasn’t played for India since 2017 and has since retired from the IPL, opening up a path for him to make history down under.

Yuvraj’s interest in the BBL comes just off the heels of former Australia international Shane Watson saying the league would benefit from the presence of Indian players.

Watson, who is currently in Dubai preparing for the IPL 2020 where he will turn out for Chennai Super Kings, said that the availability of Indian players would make a ‘massive difference’.

“There is a chance but no Indian players have been able to be released in the past to come and play at the [other] T20 tournaments so that’s a big hurdle,” Watson said.
