Bolt to visit India — for cricket

JAMAICAN sprint superstar Usain Bolt will make his first trip to India next week to play cricket against India’s World Cup hero Yuvraj Singh, organizers said on Tuesday.

The cricket face-off — titled ‘Bolt and Yuvi — Battle of the Legends’ — is being organized by sportswear giant Puma and will take place in Bangalore on September 2.

Bolt, 28, a six-time Olympic gold medallist and world record holder in both the 100 meters and 200 meters, is an ardent cricket fan. Yuvraj, a left-handed all-rounder was man of the tournament when India won the World Cup in Mumbai in 2011.
