Singh accused Dhoni of undermining Yuvraj\u2019s international cricket career and claimed Yuvraj\u2019s achievements surpass those of Kapil Dev. These statements followed closely on the heels of his criticism of Dhoni for allegedly ending Yuvraj\u2019s career prematurely.<br \/>In a recent interview with Zee Switch, Yograj Singh blamed Dhoni for the downturn in Yuvraj\u2019s career.Singh asserted that his son could have continued to play for India for another &#8220;4-5 years&#8221; if not for Dhoni&#8217;s adverse influence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I won\u2019t forgive MS Dhoni. He should look at his face in the mirror. He is a very big cricketer, but what he has done against my son, everything is coming out now; it can never be forgiven in life. I have never done two things in life\u2014first, I have never forgiven anybody who has done wrong for me, and second, I have never hugged them in my life, be it my family members or my kids,&#8221; said Yograj Singh.<\/p>\n<p>Yograj&#8217;s criticisms did not stop with Dhoni. He also directed his frustrations towards Kapil Dev, comparing his son&#8217;s achievements with those of the legendary captain. Yograj emphasized that Yuvraj won more trophies in his career than Kapil, suggesting that this was a form of &#8220;revenge&#8221; realized through Yuvraj\u2019s success.<br \/>&#8220;The greatest captain of our time, Kapil Dev&#8230; I told him, I&#8217;ll leave you in a position where the world would curse you. Today, Yuvraj Singh has 13 trophies, and you have only one, the World Cup. End of discussion,&#8221; stated Yograj Singh.<br \/>These comments have incited backlash on social media, with many expressing their disapproval of Yograj\u2019s harsh words against two of Indian cricket&#8217;s most respected figures. The controversy underscores the lingering tension and unresolved feelings Yograj Singh harbors regarding his past in cricket and the impact these feelings have on his public declarations.<\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n                    var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
