When Yuvraj Singh was detected with a cancer, little was left for the unorthodox and flamboyant cricketer known for his match winning knocks, as his future looked enveloped in a despondency.
But he fought back hard medically and mentally to regain his own self and made a wonderful comeback. The same stance, the same flashy lift of the bat, he went miles after that conquering the odds and scripted a new prologue for his career.
It is the determination and iron will that often powers many sportspersons to stage a comeback when critics predict about a hanging of the gloves.
The recent incident with the Indian young player Rishab Pant, regardless of several reasons promulgated behind, he is in a physical state when a comeback for him looks remote in the near future. He is battling the crippling odds and, yet, hopes cannot be given up now. Let’s hope to see him in the field again.
While taking a walk down the memory lane, it is worthy of a recall when the vibrant young cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi lost the sight in one of his eyes post a road accident in England, little did he hope that then he will steer his ways and cruise through the likelihoods to become the captain of the Indian team and remain at the helm of 46 tests. It was a pure case of determination and doggedness that, he could accomplish with one eye in cricket like sports where eyesight is very, very crucial.
