"The initial reports suggested that Yuvraj had what in medical terms, is called an abnormal tumour called lymphoma over his left lung.

The danger was, we were told, that it could be malignant," Shabnam said adding that he did not want to rush his return to the side and that`s why he informed BCCI about his unavailability for the West Indies series.
