Further talking to media, he said, “It was a very difficult time. It was a crucial period for me and my family when I learnt about the tumour. My mother supported me a lot during my recovery.”

He told media, “I didn’t reveal about the diagnosis earlier as I did not want any extra attention from the media and the people.”

Yuvraj Singh said, “I’ve never seen Viv Richards bat but I’ve seen Sehwag. It is one of the best innings I have ever seen. It is highly unlikely that any batsman will ever go past it.”
