Yuvraj hates batting under pressure, says mother


B D Narayankar writes

Sharjah, April 22 (PTI) Shabnam Singh, mother of Yuvraj
Singh, today said his son hates to bat under pressure and
relishes playing in a side which enjoys cricket and are
relaxed.
    "He is very happy to be picked up for RCB because cricket
is all about enjoying and that's what the Royal Challengers
Bangalore stand for. All the boys are really chilled out and
that's where he wants to be because Yuvi hates to bat under
pressure or anything," she said in an interview to RCB's
official website.
     Asked about her support to her son, Shabnam said,
"Whenever he is down and out, it is best to leave him alone
instead of pampering him. I try and make him realise that its
just the part of the game and he will come out of it. It is a
regular part of parent and child and every parent does that."
    "It is very important to support the child. I don't think
so I am different. Mothers are all about fussing over their
son and fathers are very harsh. Usually, they are," she added.
     Asked what challenges she faced from her son, Shabnam
said Yuvraj was thrown out of every school he attended and
most of the teachers expressed unhappiness over his
performance in studies.
     "I was called so many times to the school and they
(teachers) said your child is not doing well, but eventually
he decided that cricket was the one sport he wanted to play,"
she said.
