In the 2007 ICC World Twenty20 match between India and England, Yuvraj Singh made history by hitting six sixes in an over. This incredible moment happened during the 19th over of India's innings when Stuart Broad was bowling.
Yuvraj was already on fire, having hit Andrew Flintoff for two fours and a six in the previous over. With just six balls to go in the over, he launched a ruthless assault on Broad, smashing each delivery over the boundary. The crowd at Kingsmead Stadium in Durban, South Africa went wild as Yuvraj scored 36 runs off just six balls, making it one of the most memorable moments in cricket history.
Yuvraj's six sixes helped India post a competitive total of 218/4 in their 20 overs. England, who had no answers for Yuvraj's stormy knock, were eventually bowled out for 200, giving India a win by 18 runs.
Yuvraj Singh's feat has been replicated only a handful of times in international cricket, further adding to its significance. The six sixes in an over will always remain a special moment in not just Yuvraj's career, but also in the history of Indian cricket.
