Yuvraj Singh's Six Sixes Over Stuart Broad Marks 19 Years Since Historic T20I Moment
Nineteen years ago, Yuvraj Singh made cricket history by hitting six sixes in a single over against England during the 2007 inaugural World Twenty20 at Durban's Kingsmead. This feat, achieved off Stuart Broad's bowling, included a record-setting fifty in just 12 balls. Yuvraj finished with 58 runs from 16 balls, helping India post 218 for 4 and secure an 18-run victory. The moment remains iconic for its display of power hitting and confidence in T20 cricket.
