Yuvraj Singh`s wedding: Barmy Army wants THIS England cricketer to dance at left-hander`s marriage
While several Indian cricketers will attend the wedding, it has been reported that nobody from the touring England team has been invited.
New Delhi: Veteran Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh is all set to tie the knot with Bollywood actress Hazel Keech on November 30. Preparations are in full swing as the southpaw is a day away from starting a new innings.
The invites have already been sent to close friends and relatives and Yuvraj, along with her mother Shabnam, had also visited the parliament recently to invite Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the wedding.

While several Indian cricketers will attend the wedding, it has been reported that nobody from the touring England team has been invited. Meanwhile, the Barmy Army has a special wish, which is to see speedster Stuart Broad dance with the left-hander and his bride Hazel Keech at their pre-wedding functions.
Speaking to Hindustan Times, the Barmy Army's tour manager Andy Thompson said, “Oh, we all loved the way Yuvraj batted and who can forget those six sixes he hit off our lad Stuart Broad in World T-20 (2007). Congratulations to Yuvi and his bride but how we wish he had given us invites as well. Maybe, he has sent us and they are still in the mail box! We won’t be getting access to the wedding celebrations but I guess the England team might go to the pre-wedding function as the teams are staying in the same hotel. It would be exciting to see Stuart dancing with Yuvi and his wife in that function,” Andy said.
Notably, in one of the most incredible moments in the cricket history, Yuvraj smashed Broad for six consecutive sixes in an over during the 2007 Twenty20 World Cup.
