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)

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)
