Working on making a return to the world of cricket, following his recovery from a lung tumour, Indian batsman Yuvraj Singh has stated that he is looking to fit in some match practice in order to ensure that he regains his full form prior to the ICC World
Twenty20 in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 this September.
"http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Athumani-Kakonzi-c46628 tournaments but I am still not aware about the dates of these tournaments," he said, speaking to reporters at the launch
of the "YouWeCan" campaign to spread awareness regarding cancer detection.
The all-rounder last played for the national side in November last year, after which the detection of a rare germ cell tumour located between his lungs forced him out of the game. Following his treatment in the United States, Yuvraj returned to India earlier
this year amid speculations regarding his return to cricket.
Initially the 30-year-old dodged questions regarding his comeback, saying he was focusing on regaining full fitness, and would look into cricket afterwards. However, he had since expressed the desire to ease back into the sport via domestic tournaments,
and admitted that he was aiming to make a comeback in the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World T20.
However, he recently revealed that he did not feel domestic tournaments were sufficient in order to enable him to be completely fit for the T20 event. Currently undergoing fitness drills at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bangalore, Yuvraj expressed
the desire to play in the limited-overs leg of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754.
"May be I can play some matches during New Zealand's tour of India," he said. "I really felt very motivated when chairman of selectors http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Krishnamachari-Srikkanth-c71750 said that I am in their scheme of things for the World T20. I have been training for past one
and half months and I will get better in the next two months."
The series in question features two T20 matches, and will be played in early September, a few weeks prior to the WorldT20.
