Colombo: Former Team India cricketers  Ravi Shastri and Sanjay Manjrekar have questioned what they called the "hasty" comeback of Yuvraj Singh after he recovered from cancer earlier this year.

Shastri said Yuvraj should be left out for the crucial Super Eights match against Pakistan on Sunday,  while Manjrekar said he should have been left out of the game against Australia too.  

"My contention is, for eight months Yuvraj Singh has hardly played cricket, and when it comes to India vs Pakistan I'm not the kind to get emotional," Shastri told  a news channel.
