Amid the hype surrounding Yuvraj Singh's return after conquering cancer, pacer Laxmipathy Balaji will make a quiet comeback to the Indian cricket team, more than three-and-a-half years after his last international outing. "It's nice to be back. But, at the same time, it's not that I'm going to make my debut. Yes, I didn't play for India for a long time, but cricket always stayed with me," said Balaji, ahead of the first Twenty20 international against New Zealand in Visakhapatnam on Saturday.
