Yuvraj also recollected his fight against cancer at the post-match news conference.
“It feels great, it’s been a while since I got a hundred. I came back after recovering from cancer, the first two-three years were very hard. I had to work hard on my fitness and I was in and out of the team. I was not able to get a permanent spot,” said the southpaw whose previous ODI appearance was in December 2013.
“There was a time when I was wondering whether to continue or not to continue. I think a lot of people have helped me throughout this journey. Never giving up is my theory. So I never gave up, kept working hard. I knew time will change.”
