Vital coincidences: There’s only one, perhaps. Both retired around the same time. Otherwise they are as different as Wipro and Uber. Yuvraj gave his retirement address in shorts, get it?
Vital differences: The consciously ascetic Premji used a Toyota Corolla for years and travelled economy. Yuvraj, as revealed by teammate Ashish Nehra, demands a top of the line Merc even if he is on a visit to the UK.
Vital legacy: Premji made Indian IT mighty. Also made white hair fashionable. Yuvraj contributed in India winning the World Cup in 2011. Gave Stuart Broad white hair.
Vital foods: Premji’s grandfather was called the Rice King of Burma. Yuvraj, at one point, was the paratha king of the Indian team.
Vital next thing: Philanthropy and a guiding role in Wipro for Mr Premji. A holiday for Yuvraj and then he too may join the bearded herd in slim pants in the commentary box.
