New Delhi: Extremely sad news for Indian cricket fans as 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 tumour was first detected in October but it was said to non-malignant. But it has now been reportedly diagnosed as malignant.

Earlier, there were reports that he had gone to the US for surgery but on February 1 Yuvraj tweeted: "Haven't done any surgery! I don't no we're does Such news come from I'm just on medication !"

Last month he had tweeted that he was reading legendary cyclist Lance Armstrong's autobiography, who had won his battle against cancer.

"Reading lance Armstrong s book it's not about the bike ! I'm sure it will motivate me and pull me throu this time! Livestrong yuvstrong,"he had tweeted.

I have never followed cricket but I respect this man for his achievements. I read the news article a few days back and really feel sad for the turn his life has taken. Wish him luck and a speedy recovery.
