Cuttack: Veteran Yuvraj Singh yesterday termed his knock of 150 as "one of the best" in his 16-year international career. "It's probably one of my best innings. The last time I got a hundred was in the 2011 World Cup. I am very happy with the innings. We were trying to get a partnership. I just wanted to play down the ground and not take much risk.

I have been hitting the ball well in the whole domestic season," said Yuvraj during the innings break. Yuvraj said that he had told batting coach Sanjay Bangar that he will go for the big shots. "I had a word with Sanjay Bangar. I told him the way I was hitting the ball and I will go big. With the five fielder rule, mid-on, mid-off is up and the wicket was not helpful for the seamers after the first 10 overs," said Yuvraj. He was all praise for former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who also helped himself to a hundred. "Dhoni has been a sensational captain for India.
