Yuvraj Singh Lung Cancer
Yuvraj Singh - was diagnosed with 'lung cancer', Just a few weeks after winning the World Cup, its man of the tournament.
Yuvraj Singh, a known fighter, was indignant though. "I didn't believe the reports," he said. "I felt fine, and deep inside, I felt good too," .
His family was incredulous, to begin with. "We were devastated. We just couldn't accept it. He has had bouts of cough for a long time; but we were told it was common allergy... to dust and pollution."
His mother Shabnam Singh told "He was coughing and vomiting all through the tournament. But we thought it was just the stress, and his desire to excel on the biggest stage... so we ignored it". Further she added "After all the excitement and the celebrations, we went for medical advice when the problem persisted". She said "To our horror, we found a golf-ball sized lump over his left lung,".
Yuvraj himself gone into a shell. "He became quieter and endured everything in the privacy of his home; he made sure nobody got to know about it," his mother revealed. He, however, never gave up hope or, indeed, on life.
He skipped the tour to West Indies, citing lung infection; he underwent rigorous treatment and, at the same time, gingerly resumed his practice.
Indeed, only his closest friends in the Indian team were aware of his condition or mental state. He scored a gritty 62 in the second Test; but sadly, he broke his finger and had to cut short his tour. for a long time, he had to wait in the wings as the Indian middle order was bristling with extraordinary talent; only when Sourav Ganguly retired, he got a longish run. Just last year, in Sri Lanka, when things seemed to be falling into place, he was hit by dengue.
He has once told "I want to be known as a Test player, It is my biggest ambition and I will do anything to prove myself there." & Now Suresh Raina took his place, and scored a debut century; Yuvraj is again back on the sidelines.
