Here is the opinion Of Indian VC Yuvraj Singh about Mendis:-

http://www.cricketnext.com/news/mendis-is-not-unplayable-says-yuvraj/33508-13.html

Yuvraj is making same mistake as seniors did.He forget That How his stumps got uprooted by Mendis in Asia Cup FInal.

Answer 1

Yuvraj should be the last person to talk about mendis. Even a part time spinner like Dilshan could bowl Yuvraj out.

Yuvraj is pathetic against spin.

Answer 2

he is taking it to ligthly

Answer 3

Haha, but maybe he is talking from a spirit of aggression, and is trying to psyche himself up,  and the team may respond well.

Then again, his stumps did go flying.  

Answer 4

they are always like that, aren't they?

Answer 5

its their Hobby.

Answer 6

Duh....

No one talks about an opponent and says, "OOOooh, I am scared!" Even if he is or not, when Media Q him, he or anyone in the World, has to show a brave front.

Everyone know Mendis is a wonder bowler just now. He has to be read. No one is making mistakes. If I and you can see Mendis's skill, so can the batsmen. They are no fools.

Answer 7

I think still he is under the arms of PADUKON and feeling nerve.

Answer 8

India are on the back foot right now but the ODI team are almost a completely different entity. With the likes of dhoni, yuvraj, raina, sharma and also to some extent badrinath and pathan all coming back hopefully fired up and energised, the best way to approach the game is going to be in a positive way, otherwise they will have lost before a ball has even been bowled

Answer 9

So he thinks the Indian batsmen will master Mendis in time? lol, the thing is, some of them don't have that time as they are near retirement. Mendis is just starting out and already has wonderful records up his sleeve, so who knows just how good he will get. I see him passing Warne & Murali's records in the future. He has a lot of promise, so yes, I think they may be a little over confident.

Answer 10

Not at all. Its the truth spoken by Yuvraj.

Answer 11

no i mean like this is how it goes they become over cofident then

they loose and the next match they win! lol yeap that is India alright.

Answer 12

Even the experienced Test side had brushed aside the Mendis threat before the Test series but paid heavily when the plucky spinner went on to create a world record by claiming 26 wickets in a three-match Test series, which the hosts won 2-1.

one thing wrong with history is it repeats itself

Answer 13

It is only a confidence boosting measure by the vice-captain.

It looks hollow when we see it comes from a bunny of quality spin.But I am sure he knows it very well and will be careful enough while wielding the bat.  

Answer 14

I dont think that indian team can tackle mendis.

as far as yuvraj is concerned, gosh! somebody stop his over aggressive dreams!
