New Delhi:
Yuvraj was appointed as MS Dhoni's deputy after Virender Sehwag was ruled out of the tournament due to injured shoulder.
Interestingly, Sehwag had replaced Yuvraj after the southpaw went through a lean patch and missed out on a berth in the Test side.
Sehwag was named the vice-captain in all three formats. However, it is not clear if Yuvraj will continue to hold the position.
