With yet another failure in this game, hopes of Yuvraj making a comeback in the Indian team has now become more dim and bleak.
Though, he became the center of attraction with a brilliant century that century on a tough track at Lali but with a dual failure in this game, selectors might find it difficult to add him to the squad.
Also with team India not playing more than 8 white ball games after this, Dhoni might not risk any other player before the Champions trophy which is scheduled to be played next year in the month of June.
