My lifestyle was very different from his, so we were never close friends, we were only friends because of cricket," Yuvraj said.
Though he said that with Dhoni it was a very good professional relationship. “When me and Mahi went on the ground, we gave more than 100 percent to our country together," he said. The legendary all-rounder noted not all 11 players on a team get along with one another, adding that, teammates don't have to be best friends outside the field.
In the podcast, he also said that before the 2019 World Cup, he had approached Mahi for career advice and was informed that the selection committee was not considering him and provided him with a clear understanding of his situation. He said, “When I was at the end of my career, when I wasn't getting the right picture about my career, I asked him for advice. He was the guy who told me that the selection committee is not looking you right now.
I was like, at least I got to know the real picture. This is just before 2019 World Cup. That is the reality," he said.Milestone Alert!
