[Saba Sports News] In the 2007 T20I World Cup’s 21st match, Yuvraj Singh etched his name in cricket history with an incredible feat.
Facing England’s Stuart Broad in the 19th over, Yuvraj hit six consecutive sixes, achieving the fastest fifty in T20 International cricket in just 12 balls. To celebrate the 16th Anniversary of this iconic moment on September 19, 2023, sand artist Fr. Christy Valiyaveettil paid tribute with an intricate sand art display. Yuvraj shared this artwork on his Instagram, expressing his gratitude.
However, amidst the celebration, there’s a fiery confrontation that added drama to Yuvraj’s remarkable innings. In the same match against England, he engaged in a heated verbal exchange with Andrew Flintoff.
Flintoff had threatened Yuvraj, who responded with determination, famously saying, “you see this bat in my hand? You know where I am gonna hit you with this bat?” This exchange became part of cricketing lore.
