how many runs did yuvraj singh score in his first innings in one day international cricket?

Answer 1

From memory - 84 against the aussies in Kenya.

Answer 2

hmmm...

Yuvraj Singh's debut was against Kenya at Nairobi (Kenya) in 2000 but he wasn't required to bat in that match as the top-order was enough for the opposition.

However, his first inning as a batsman was in his 2nd ODI which was ICC KnockOut, 2000/01, 1st Qarter Final against Australia on 7th October 2000 at the same venue where he scored 84 match-winning runs batting at no. 5 position and got the man-of-the-match award. I still remember that match. He batted beautifully and his branded airy flicks in between deep mid-on and deep-wicket where just a treat to watch. Due to his brilliance, India advanced into the Semis.

Hope I haven't leave anything...

Answer 3

Though Yuvaraj Singh made his debut in One Day International against Kenya in the 1st Pre-Quarter Final Match of ICC Knockout Tournament 2000/2001 played at Gymkhana Club Ground on 03.10.2000, he did not bat in that match as India won by 8 wickets.

In the next match played by him against Australia in the 1st Quarter Final of ICC Knockout Tournament 2000/2001 at
Gymkhana Club Ground on 07.10.2000, he scored 84 runs
in 80 balls. India won that match by 20 runs and Yuvaraj Singh was the Man of the Match.

Answer 4

I think Shaun Marsh is a better batsman. He averages 42.57 in 29 (Twenty 20) matches with a strike rate of 132.73. H.S of 115 and in only Twenty20 is awesome, Yuvraj is probably third after Gayle.

Answer 5

84 against australia in kenya in champions trophy(icc knockout then called) 2000

Answer 6

That match was fixed so whatever he scored doesn't count!

Answer 7

Answer 8

84 here is his total carrier

Yuvraj made his One-day International debut against Kenya at Nairobi in 2000, at the ICC Knock-Out Trophy. He showed his potential in his second ODI which was against the Australians where he scored a quickfire 84 off 82 balls against a quality pace attack consisting of bowlers like Glenn McGrath, Brett Lee and Jason Gillespie [6]. However, after a lean run of form, he was dropped for the one-dayers against Australia in India in early 2001 [7], but returned later in the year and helped India to victory in a match in Sri Lanka [8] with an unbeaten 98.

One of his most memorable innings was a partnership with Mohammad Kaif in the Natwest Series final against England in July 2002 which led India to victory [9]. He was selected and represented India at the 2003 Cricket World Cup. He scored his first century in his fourth season with the Indian team against Bangladesh in 2003. After that he also scored hundreds against Zimbabwe and Australia, including a 139 off 119 balls at the Sydney Cricket Ground [10]. In the Indian Oil Cup 2005, he made 110 (of 114 balls) (his third century) and an important partnership worth 165 runs with Mohammad Kaif, to become the man of the match against West Indies in the last match of the round robin league. After reaching his century, he attracted attention by angry gesticulations to the Indian dressing room, which was postulated to be due to his clashes with team management - Greg Chappell had been appointed as the new Indian coach and he had criticised Singh [11]. He later praised Chappell's techniques [12].

Yuvraj has had a recent (late 2005 to early 2006) run of good form in the ODI format of the game. He was named as the man of the series in three consecutive series, against South Africa (joint with Graeme Smith),[13] and then against Pakistan and England, in which he scored three centuries and four half-centuries in fifteen matches, which propelled him into the top ten of the ICC ODI batting rankings. During the Pakistan tour, at times when captain and vice-captain Rahul Dravid and Virender Sehwag were absent, Yuvraj was the on-field captain, indicating that he may be seen as a potential captain [14]. In the next series in the West Indies, Yuvraj hit two fifties in four games, even though India lost the series 4-1. His performance was recognised with his shortlisting by the ICC as one of four nominees for the Internation One Day player of the year award.

Yuvraj missed the first game in the series after that, the tri-series against Australia and West Indies in Kuala Lumpur, due to illness and after failing to reach double figures in the following two games, was axed for Mohammed Kaif in the last group match. He showed signs of returning to form in the Champions Trophy, hitting a restrained unbeaten 27 to guide India to victory against England in the opening game after he was recalled in place of Kaif, but a knee injury forced him out of the final group match. He is expected to miss the impending tour of South Africa due to the injury.


[edit] Test career
Yuvraj made his Test debut against New Zealand in Mohali in late 2003 in front of his home crowd in Punjab due to the absence of regular captain Sourav Ganguly in the No. 6 position [15]. He was omitted upon Ganguly's return but got another another opportunity in the Test team in the 2004 Tour to Pakistan, when Ganguly was again injured. He scored his first Test century in a losing effort against Pakistan in the second Test at Lahore. When Ganguly returned for the third Test, Akash Chopra was dropped and it appeared that the Indian selectors wanted to give him a regular place in the team. He was subsequently played as Virender Sehwag's opening partner, but after two poor matches in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia [16], he was dropped in favour of Gautam Gambhir. He was recalled to the Test team, batting in the No. 6 position for the away series against Zimbabwe in August 2005 after Sachin Tendulkar was sidelined with tennis elbow. He then retained his position in the Test team after Ganguly was axed following a row with coach Greg Chappell. He scored a second Test century in the third and final Test in Pakistan in the series in January 2006, which India again lost. However, Yuvraj has struggled subsequently in 2006, failing to pass 50 in six Tests against England (two, both at home) and the West Indies (four, all away from home).


[edit] County cricket
After the 2003 Cricket World Cup, Yuvraj was signed by the Yorkshire County cricket team, becoming only the second Indian after Tendulkar to represent the county [17]. However, he had a disappointing run, scoring less than 200 runs in either form of the game [18], but described it as an important learning experience.
