Watch: Yuvraj Singh apologises to Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni for his father’s remarks

It is not new for cricket fans to know Yuvraj Singh's father, Yograj Singh's strong negative comments about the former Indian World Cup-winning captains Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni. Recently, in an interview, the former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh apologised to Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni for his father's behaviour. 

Yograj Singh, the former Indian cricketer and actor, played for the national team in one Test and six ODIs, where he took one and four wickets, respectively. 

For multiple times, Yograj blamed Kapil Dev, the 1983 World Cup-winning captain, for his short-lived cricket career. Meanwhile, the former Indian cricketer also blamed the 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 ODI World Cup-winning skipper MS Dhoni for destroying his son Yuvraj Singh's international cricket career.

In the meantime, Yuvraj has always disagreed with his father's view. In the recent interview with Vikrant Gupta, the former Indian all-rounder revealed that he had told his father that his behaviour wasn't right about the former Indian captains. Further, in that video, Yuvraj apologised to both the former Indian captains, Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni, for his father's poor behaviour. 

What prompted the apology involving Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni

Yograj Singh claimed that the then skipper Kapil Dev threatened him and sabotaged his cricket career. Their battle became a sensation when Yograj once revealed that he went to Kapil's house with a pistol but didn't shoot due to his mother's presence.

Meanwhile, Yograj blamed MS Dhoni for not selecting his son Yuvraj for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2015, and even called the former Indian captain a "backstabber". However, in recent times, Yograj has also been seen to praise Dhoni for his long-term successful performances.
