Yuv got a chance
Wednesday 23 September 2009 15:52, UK
Yuvraj Singh could top the Sky Sports International Sixes League after the ICC Champions Trophy.
Big-hitter will benefit from successful Indian campaign
With Chris Gayle missing from the West Indies squad for the Champions Trophy in South Africa, this could be Yuvraj Singh's last chance to close the gap on the former West Indian captain at the top of the Sky Sports International Sixes League. He currently trails by 11 sixes and this tournament could provide the final opportunity for him to reclaim the crown he won in 2007. The rest of the chasing pack appear to be too far back to make any impression on the leading two, so it could be just a case of laying down a marker for the 2010 challenge.| SKY SPORTS INTERNATIONAL SIXES LEAGUE 2009 Overall standings - updated September 23 |
