New Delhi: Undergoing chemotherapy for a malignant lung cancer, Yuvraj Singh has gone bald and the cricketer has posted his latest picture showing the after-effects of the treatment on social networking site Twitter.

“Finally the hair has gone ! But #livstrong #yuvstrong,” Yuvraj posted alongside a link to a picture of him without hair on the site.

The 30-year-old left-hander has been in the US since last month and is currently undergoing chemotherapy in the Cancer Research Institute in Boston.

“I will fight and come back as a stronger man cause I have the prayers of my nation! Thank you to the media for their support and respecting my privacy,” Yuvraj had written earlier.

“and of course everyday I look forward to come back and wear my India jersey, my India cap and represent my country again jai hind,” he had stated.

Yuvraj has played 37 Tests, scoring 1,775 runs at an average of 34.80.

He has 8,051 runs at an average of 37.62 from his 274-match ODI career, the highlight of which was his stellar role in India's World Cup triumph last year.

A case of punjabi lack of esteem, excess of bluster, and living in denial

His case seems to be one of a typical punjabi low esteem, bluster, and living in denial. For more than an year he and his want to be celebrities too maa and baap, refused to accept what the situation was. This could easily have been treated in India, but he wants to go to US for treatment. Typical punjabi mentality.
