Indian Cricketer Yuvraj Singh today returned India  after under going the treatment of Cancer  for rare germ cell cancer in the United States.
Received by his mother Shabnam at the Indira Gandhi International Airport here, Yuvraj came on a British Airways flight this morning after spending some days in London to recuperate from the after-effects of the chemotherapy
“Finally the day has come ! i am going home tomorrow ! cant wait , excited to see my friends and family ..see you india!! mera bharat mahan!” Yuvraj had tweeted on Sunday.
His head, which went bald during the treatment, was covered by a red sports cap. Wearing a red T-shirt teamed with Khaki pants, Yuvraj made his way through hordes of fans and waiting media personnel after coming out from back gate of the airport.
Yuvraj posed with his mother Shabnam for shutterbugs as a huge crowd gathered at the Indira Gandhi International Airport to have a glimpse of India’s 2011 World Cup hero. Yuvraj then left for his residence in Gurgaon.
“Yuvraj is fine. He has fought a long innings against cancer. We are grateful to his fans for their support and wishes,” said Shabnam.
Yuvraj’s father, Yograj Singh told television channels that his son was fine and hoped to see him back on the cricket field soon.
“Yuvi has fought a battle very difficult to cope up with. He’s very strong… He’s come back hail and hearty and that is a beautiful moment for me,” he said.
Batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar visited Yuvraj in London last week while former India captain Anil Kumble had flown to the US to meet the star cricketer when he was undergoing chemotherapy.
The Man of the Tournament from last year’s World Cup, which India won after 28 years, had gone to the United States for treatment in January.
