Xtra Time Web Desk: Following a heart surgery in July, India's 2022 U19 World Cup winning captain Yash Dhull made a stunning comeback with his Sixth first class century against Tamil Nadu at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi. Dhull held Delhi throughout with an unbeaten 104 out of 264 in reply to Tamil Nadu's massive 674. 

Earlier this year, a hole was detected in Dhull's heart, leading him to follow some necessary procedure. After his heroics, Dhull addressed it as a minor issue considering its chances to be serious if not taken precautions. Talking about his medical complications, he informed about having this issue since his birth. During a camp at NCA, he came to know about it.
