Indian team's opening batsman Rohit Sharma revealed that when he walked into the Indian team, Yuvraj Sharma was his cricket crush and that he wanted to play and train like him. Rohit informed this in a live Instagtam session with Yuvraj Singh.

Rohit Sharma mentioned in the chat, "When I came into the team, my cricket crush was Yuvraj Singh. I just wanted to talk to Yuvraj, I wanted to see how he prepares, the role that Yuvraj had, I had to essay the same role eventually in the middle order. When it came to fielding, I wanted to learn from Yuvraj. There was an incident in which I had entered the team bus early, I was half an hour early and I had taken the seat which was originally reserved for Yuvraj. He then entered the bus and I thought 'that is how you make an entry.""

Rohit further went on to recount the incident where he took Yuvraj Singh's seat and how the latter was furious about the same. "He asked me 'do you know whose seat this is'? He then said, 'get up, it is my seat, you go sit on another seat'. RP Singh had told me that the seat was Yuvraj's but I still chose to sit there. Having said this, we have a good relationship now," Rohit said.
