Explosive middle-order batsman Yuvraj Singh has recovered from a finger injury and is available for Wednesday's second one-day international against Australia in Nagpur, India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni confirmed on Tuesday.
Yuvraj sustained the injury during practice ahead of the match against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy in South Africa. He was included in the squad for the series against Australia but was forced to sit out the opener which the tourists edged by four runs.
"Yuvraj has been the backbone of our batting line-up, especially because he bats at number four and at a time when the ball is changed and the second powerplay comes into the picture," said Dhoni.
"Someone with the capabilities of Yuvraj at that stage is a huge help and it's not just his batting, but his bowling as well.
"With him around you have the luxury of another part-time bowler so even if the others have a poor day, you have one more option."
