NEW DELHI, April 12 (PTI): Star England batsman Kevin Pietersen today visited cricketer Yuvraj Singh at his residence at Gurgaon.
Yuvraj, who is recuperating from a rare germ cell cancer, returned home on Monday after undergoing treatment in the United States.
�Great to hook up with the pie chucker...,� tweeted Pietersen after meeting Yuvraj today.
He also posted a picture clicked with Yuvraj, along with the tweet.
Pietersen, who is currently playing for Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League, had a few days ago backed Yuvraj to fight through the difficult period of his life.
�I was lucky enough to speak to Yuvraj last night before his return from London. As a sportsperson, our job is to accommodate and follow our fellow cricketers in their difficult times. Yuvraj is a fighter and he will fight through this period also,� the Englishman had said.
Yuvraj had a personal rivalry with Pietersen during the India-England Test series in India in 2008 when the Englishman had referred him a pie chucker for his innocuous bowling.
