Former India batsman Yuvraj Singh feels that his enormous experience in white-ball cricket might come in handy for a role as a mentor which is his area of interest rather than full-time coaching.

I am more keen on coaching than doing commentary,” Yuvraj said. The hero of India’s global triumph in 2007 and 2011 feels that he can make a difference speaking to youngsters on mental aspect of middle-order batting. “I have more insight in limited-overs cricket and I can share my knowledge with players coming to bat at No 4, 5, 6 as to what sort of mindset they should have, he said. “I will probably start by being a mentor and then if it goes well maybe full-time coaching,” he said.
