A whole new group of players exposed to high level cricket. Dinesh Karthik was quite smart to not accept retention.

Kirsten: We wanted Yuvraj as well – he can do the damage with the bat, is a class act and I have worked with him. But for me most importantly he is left-arm bowler too and adds balance to the side.
