Yuvi vomited Blood during his innings

It is said that Yuvraj was seen vomiting blood before this innings, yet he stood with Team and played one of his best knock in the tournament. Vomiting blood, chronic coughing, observed while even on the field, coupled with breathing problems, this man overcame them all and fought for the game’s biggest trophy as if his life depended on it.

Yuvraj Singh is probably India’s most loved cricketer and was one of the spectacular stars of Indian domination in limited-overs cricket tournaments during ICC 2007 T20 World Cup and ICC World Cup 2011. He retired from international cricket today, bringing down curtains to his well-celebrated cricket career where he achieved many milestones as an Indian cricketer.
