Internet Desk: Indian ace middle order batsman Yuvraj Singh on Friday returned in the field with a fine knock after a long interval when he scored 150 runs off 127 balls against England.
Before travelling with the team for the third and final ODI in Kolkata Yuvraj visited a cancer hospital in Cuttack on Friday.
Debashish Mohanty and Shiv Sundar Das, two former international cricketers from Odisha, facilitated the meeting of the children, who are undergoing treatment in a private hospital at Telengapentha in Cuttack, with the star batsman.
The kids were enthralled after spending time with Yuvraj, who himself is a cancer survivor.
Notably, Yuvraj was diagnosed with a cancerous tumour in his left lung in February, 2012 following which he underwent chemotherapy treatment at the Cancer Research Institute in Boston as well as Medicine Facilities in Indianapolis, Indiana.
He was discharged from the hospital after the third and final cycle of chemotherapy and returned to India in April, 2012.
