In the year 2007, on this day (19 September) Yuvraj Singh smashed 6 sixes in an over.
In the year 2007, on this day (19 September) something magical happened in South Africa. In that match between India and England, the Men in Blue had won the toss and opted to bat first.
After the wicket of Robin Uthappa, in came all-rounder Yuvraj Singh who went on to script history.
Yuvi provided the late flourish allowing India to post 218 runs on the board. However, what was even more special was the six sixes he smashed in an over. The flamboyant batsman amassed six sixes in Stuart Broad's over and scored his fifty of just 12 balls.
