April 09, 2012 16:08

Welcoming Yuvraj Singh on his return to the country, Delhi Daredevils captain Virender Sehwag today said he will personally meet his India teammate this week and inquire about his health.

Received by his mother Shabnam at the Indira Gandhi International Airport here, Yuvraj came on a Jet Airways flight this morning after spending some days in London to recuperate from the after-effects of the chemotherapy.

"I am very happy Yuvraj is back (from the US). We all prayed for him. In the coming 2-3 days I will go and personally meet him," Sehwag said during a promotional event here.

"He is presently under rehabilitation and I hope he will return to the field soon," he added. Sehwag's Daredevils teammate Kevin Pietersen praised Yuvraj for his fighting abilities and said he too will personally meet him this week.
