A1.3. Read the passage and answer the questions that follow

WELCOME BACK YUVI ....!

Indian all-rounder and World Cup hero Yuvraj Singh will don national colours for the first time

since battling cancer when a two-match Twenty20 series against New Zealand starts on

Saturday. The 30-year-old left-hander underwent chemotherapy in the United States in March

and April to treat a rare germ-cell tumour between his lungs which was diagnosed late last

year.

Yuvraj, who was ‘Man of the Tournament’ in India's World Cup triumph last year, has not

played competitive cricket since two home Tests against the West Indies last November. But

the selectors recalled him as soon as he was declared fit by doctors at the National Cricket

Academy in Bangalore where he had begun light training in July.

In less than 36 hours from now, Yuvraj Singh will complete an incredible journey- that of having

recovered from cancer and walking back on the field as an Indian cricketer. How many runs he

scores is a different matter, it is his return to the field that makes him a winner.

On Saturday, Yuvraj will play his first international match after being diagnosed with cancer.

And this journey was not an easy one. This was one test that took a lot out of him. "There was

a lot of tension. There were negative thoughts in my mind. I used to cry a lot," Yuvraj

reminisces.

But all this while his teammates on the cricket pitch played the perfect mates off the field as

well. “One day Anil Kumble came to meet me in Boston. He closed my laptop and said 'stop

watching cricket and focus on your health'," Yuvraj said.

The left-hander did what he knows best - fought back! And soon the hero was back in India. It

was a slow recovery- from stepping into the gym to stepping into the nets.

On Saturday, the journey will reach its most important phase. Yuvraj will be back in the India

shirt, playing a T20 International against New Zealand. And he can't wait for the match to

begin. He landed in Vizag yesterday and tweeted: "Just landed in lovely Vizag!! Beautiful scenic

view before landing! Hope it doesn't rain tom and day after!! Cause I just can't wait anymore."

And he had wishes pouring from all corners. Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan wished his

friend good luck. He said, "I will repeat what Yuvraj said. It doesn't matter if he scores one run

or 20 runs or 200 runs. I wish he again hits six sixes. Whatever, he said, he has won and he

actually has won. I would watch the match just because Yuvraj will be playing it." Olympic

silver-medalist MC Mary Kom also wished the southpaw, who won India U-19 World Cup in

2000, T20 World Cup in 2007 and ICC World Cup in 2011."I wish all the best in the future to Yuvraj," Mary said. With the nation behind him, I expect the

all-rounder to perform as good in his second innings as the first if not better.
