“I don’t want to jump the gun. I want to take it day by day. If tomorrow it hurts again, I have to take rest again.

But now it is good I am not feeling any pain while hitting. I am back to my routine. And it’s great to be back,” Sania said.

Australian physiotherapist Amir Takla and many other suggested a surgery for healing the injured wrist and then on the recommendation of Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh, Sania consulted Jatin Choudhry, who by applying spiral therapy healed her injury in a very short period.

“It is great blessing. I am lucky to find somebody like Jatin. It was almost a desperate time. Then he came and did a miracle,” Sania said.

“A lot of people thought that I needed another surgery to heal and said it was the only option. There were countless MRIs and I was running around hospitals. So, it is really miraculous to have it healed like this.

“He (Yuvraj) said ‘why don’t you try and give it a shot’.

I did not have a choice. He really played a big part (in healing the wrist),” she said.

“It’s almost two weeks that I have been hitting the ball and it’s pain free. I am also surprised (by the fast recovery). It’s a Korean Therapy and it worked on me. By God’s grace it is going well and very close to how it was before the injury,” she added.

Sania, who has courted one or the other controversy in her career at regular intervals, also made it clear that idea of not playing in India never crossed her mind.
