Want to be remembered as Test player, says YuvrajIndia's middle-order batsman Yuvraj Singh reckons that his best years as a cricketer is "yet to come" and he will now strive to revive his Test career.

Yuvraj is not a regular member of Test squad and lost his place in the side after the series in Sri Lanka last year, but the elegant left-hander said he wants to be remembered as a good Test cricketer after retirement. "It's the right time to focus on my Test career. I want to be remembered as a good batsman in the longer format of the game. I have always tried to give my best shot whenever on the field but unfortunately injury issues were there", Yuvraj said.

"In the upcoming series against the West Indies and Australia, I want to score big and make a mark in the Test format. I want to restructure my Test career and I'll raise the bar this time," he said. Yuvraj said he has matured as a player after going through various ups and downs in his career, marred by injury or fitness concerns.

"My best years are yet to come. After a long injury layoff, I am fully fit and raring to go. My career has been marred by a lot of injury issues but I think it's on the right path now. My best is yet to come as lot of cricket is still left in me," he said.

"After coming back from England, I worked hard towards my training. My body took a lot of toll in the past one year due to injury issues. There are no more injuries and I am looking forward to make a mark through the upcoming West Indies series. I want to do good in the series and serve the Indian cricket for long," he said.
