He won second consecutive Man of the Match award for his fantastic show, both with bat and bowl.

His tally of wickets in World Cup has reached 7, the second highest for India after Zaheer Khan with 11 wickets in this World Cup. His innings took India to quarter finals. India will be hoping for the same performances from him in the up-coming matches.
Yuvi – First Man To Take 5 Wickets And Score Fifty In Same Match
In the match against Ireland, Yuvi came up with a new record. He beacame the first man in the history of World Cup matches to score half-century and to take 5 wickets in the same match. He got his best bowling figures in the match with 5 for 31 in his quota of 10 overs. Next man close to him is legendary Indian Captain Kapil Dev, who took 5 wickets and score 40 runs against Australia in 1983 World Cup. The good thing for India is Yuvraj’s contribution to the team both with bat and the bowl. Before the world cup, he was finding it pretty hard to score runs.
