"I am really annoyed with the reports published in a leading daily today. I very strongly deny the story. I would like to put this on record that I have never met this girl (Gawda) personally," Yuvraj told PTI today.

One of the most eligible bachelors in the country, the 29-year-old has often been linked to Bollywood actresses and top models. His stocks have soared to an all-time high after his recent exploits in India's historic World Cup triumph.

"It's really unfortunate that people can create such fiction and there's not an iota of truth in this entire story. I request the media to state the facts and please don't create stories out of nothing," an upset Yuvraj added.

Such has been his displeasure that Yuvraj tweeted for his fans and friends urging them not to believe in these rumours."It is absolute ridiculous and please stop linking me to everyone and anyone," he tweeted.
