Yuvraj Singh is not Sikh. His father is Hindu Punjabi Rajput. Actual surname is Bhundel. Yuvraj Singh Bhundel. His father was a cricketer and Punjabi Film Hero. Mother of Yuvraj was Shabnam, a Muslim and connected to punjabi film industry.
Other players you mentioned Gurpreet, Amrinder are Sikhs but they have decided not to wear turban. Probably sporting reasons. In India, mostly religion of parents is carried on to children, it is up to them whether they strictly follow it or not. A sikh is not banished from the religion just because he has cut his hair. During important functions and while visiting Gurudwara, they do wear turban for that occasion. Many Sikh boys of my school cut their turban and got a Bullet motorcycle to impress girls by the time they reached class 11/12. Some start wearing caps - especially immigration wallahs. Late 90s early 2000s this was the trend. Remember the famous hockey players of that time Jugraj, gagan ajit were all sikhs. punjabi pop singers and all.
One reason actor Daljeet Dosanjh is very popular is that he has brought the pride back in Turban. Earlier Punjabi film lead heroes were mostly without turban.
@thebeautifulgame I didnt like the comparison based on any these link to negate your -1 point due to that dislike I liked your above comment... so no effect for you
