Indeed a fighter

He is an epitome of flamboyance both on and off the field.
A strong hitter of ball
A hard worker
An inspiration
But most of all, a FIGHTER.


Yuvraj Singh's illness has affected the billions of cricket lovers around the world. The dashing southpaw, who was also the man of the tournament in this edition of the world cup, has been diagnosed with lung cancer and this has come as a rude shock to everyone around the world.
Who can forget Stuart Broad's face when Yuvi hit the poor chap for 6 consecutive sixes; and who can forget the jubilation each of those hits brought. Yuvi had indeed made his presence felt on the field. He was a man of style, be it with the bat in his hands or with a babe on his arms.
Though his flamboyance cost him his position in the team a while back, he made sure he came back and with a bang.But destiny had other plans.
Soon after making a comeback Yuvi's fitness took an ugly turn. A finger injury is what began a string of unfortunate health-related events, and instead of on the field, he was seen more often in the physical rehabilitation centre.
When he was diagnosed with a tumor in his lung, nobody had thought it would be this bad; but the fact remains that he is suffering from cancer, he is battling for his life.
We as a nation are praying and more often than not prayers work more than medicines. With a billion hearts praying for Yuvi, recovery is just a while away. Before we know it he will be back on the field, hitting those sixes that he is best known for.
