On September 19, 2007, Yuvraj scripted his name in the history book by smashing six maximums in Broad's single over. The left-hander reached his half-century in just 12 deliveries, which is to date the fastest half-century in the shortest format of the game (Pic: AFP)
He came out to bat when Robin Uthappa's wicket fell, and he provided the late flourish, allowing India to post 218 runs on the board (Pic: AFP)
It was in the 19th over of India's innings, when Yuvraj took Broad to the cleaners, hitting him for 6 sixes and taking India's total over the 200-run mark (Pic: AFP)
The "Men in Blue" were able to win the inaugural ICC T20 World Cup in 2007, and Yuvraj was a vital player for the team in the tournament. The 43-year-old was also phenomenal in India's 2011 World Cup triumph, becoming the first all-rounder to score over 300 runs and take 15 wickets in a single World Cup (Pic: X/@RCBTweets)
