A young cricketer from Australia has come to India to cricket properly. The Australian talent has joined Yograj Singh Academy and is now learning the basics of cricket there.
Yograj Singh, former India cricketer and father of Yuvraj Singh, spent time with the boy to polish batting techniques. In his YouTube channel, Yograj Singh shared a video capturing moments of training of the 11-year-old boy.
In the video, we can see how the former India cricketer teaches the boy how to make the technique precise. From the initial few minutes of the video, viewers can see how he teaches his special student how to make a forward defense. Then, we can see him operating a bowling machine to test the batter's art of defense.
Yograj Singh teaching the art of defence
The description of the video reads, "An 11-year-old from Australia came to Yograj Singh Cricket Academy, and in one session, his game completely changed. The reason was not luck or talent—it was his understanding of time. When he practiced, he was fully present. His body and mind worked together, and under Yograj Singh’s guidance, he began to learn the art of self-coaching."
Yograj Singh was mainly a right-arm pace bowling all-rounder who could add runs from the lower order. For India, his career was brief but promising. He represented India in 1 Test and 6 One Day Internationals between 1980 and 1981. In his only Test match, which was against New Zealand in Wellington, he claimed a brace. In ODI matches, Yograj picked up 4 wickets. In domestic cricket, Singh played for Haryana and was a consistent performer in the Ranji Trophy, taking over 60 wickets in first-class cricket. Due to injury, his career was cut short.
