It has been ages that we have seen Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni enthral fans with their classical partnerships, however on Saturday they did hunt in pairs albeit in the Indian team's nets session.
The Men in Blue are scheduled to appear in Asia Cup final against Bangladesh on Sunday and before the epic clash, all the batsmen fine tuned their skills with the willow. Dhoni and Yuvraj arrived at adjacent nets at the batting session and immediately sent the bowlers for a leather hunt. While Dhoni was seen playing in his unorthodox way smashing a short pitched delivery, Yuvi was all class and finesse cover driving at ease.
Yuvraj making a comeback to the Indian team found the going tough initially but then like a true champion he silenced his critics scoring a whirlwind 18-ball-35 against Sri Lanka and then backed it up with a 14-ball-25 versus UAE. Dhoni hasn't had the chance to face too many deliveries in this tourney but his net session gave the indication that the skipper is ready to play a vital match-winning innings if needed.

The atmosphere before the summit clash is tense and on top of that a morphed picture of Dhoni's severed head in Bangladesh bowler Taskin Ahmed's hands has sent ripples across the host nation. Bangladeshis have been criticised for promoting this photoshopped picture and Indian team director Ravi Shastri was furious with this foolish act. He refused to get involved in the matter saying India's job is to play cricket and at the moment they are concentrating on that very job.
