Axed after his failures in India's home series against England earlier this year, Yuvraj Singh had few opportunities to catch the selectors' eye again. Even his stint for Sahara Pune Warriors in the Indian Premier League wasn't satisfying enough for the selectors to recall him to the national team.

However, the selectors gave the dashing southpaw a confidence boost by naming him skipper of the India 'A' squad. Yuvraj repaid the faith in inimitable style by scoring a fiery 89-ball 123 as India 'A' thumped a hapless West Indies 'A' by 77 runs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium to launch the three-match one-day series on a winning note.

Besides Yuvraj, Yusuf Pathan was the other out-of-favour cricketer to grab the opportunity, slamming a 32-ball 70 to bolster his comeback bid after being dropped from the India team following the 2012 Asia Cup in Dhaka.

Put in to bat, the fourth-wicket pair of Yuvraj and Yusuf scored 125 runs in just 55 balls as India recovered from a poor start to post a commanding 312 in a match that was reduced to 42 overs-a-side after the contest was delayed by two hours owing to overnight rain.

After his blazing show with the bat, Pathan returned to claim two wickets as the visitors were bundled out for 235 in 39.1 overs. Narsingh Deonarine and Ashley Nurse scored 57 each but couldn't help matters.
