Yuvraj Singh has cancer says his Physio

India's flamboyant batsman Yuvraj Singh has been diagnosed with lung cancer, according to some media reports. India's man of the World Cup tournament is currently undergoing chemotherapy in the United States. He has a tumor between his lung and the heart. His chemotherapy treatment started in February and will go on till March. He left for the US on 26th January. His physiotherapist Dr Jatin Chaudhary, however, assured that the ailment is curable and the batsman would be fit to resume cricket in May. His mother Shabnam Singh could not be reached for her comments. 

"It is a rare tumour and is cancerous but it has been detected in stage one itself. Doctors had to decide whether to continue medication or go for chemotherapy but since parts of the tumour are just above the artery of his heart, there was a danger that while running it could burst. But it is 100% curable," Chaudhary said. "The doctors decided that he would have to undergo chemotherapy and he travelled to the US on January 26. End of March, he would undergo a CT scan and should recover by then. After that it is just some rehabilitation in April before he is fit to be back on the field in May," he added
