Yograj Singh's Shocking Claim About Kapil Dev Sparks Media Frenzy

Former cricketer Yograj Singh alleges he once threatened Kapil Dev with a pistol after being dropped from the team, a statement Kapil humorously dismissed.

  • Yograj Singh, father of former cricketer Yuvraj Singh, claimed on a podcast that he once took a pistol to Kapil Dev's house intending to shoot him after being dropped from the team in the 1980s.
  • Yograj stated that he refrained from carrying out his plan out of respect for Kapil Dev's mother, who was present at the time.
  • Kapil Dev, when asked about Yograj's comments, dismissed them with humor, asking, 'Who is Yograj Singh?' and refusing to engage further.
  • Yograj's remarks have drawn widespread criticism on social media, with many calling out his controversial statements beyond this incident.
  • Yograj also mentioned a long-standing grudge against Kapil Dev, claiming it influenced his decision to focus on shaping his son Yuvraj Singh's cricket career.
