Who hit six sixes in one over off Stuart Broad at the 2007 World Twenty20?
Answer
Yuvraj Singh
Answer
Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj Singh hit six sixes in one over off Stuart Broad at the 2007 World Twenty20. The feat came during India's Super Eight match against England in Durban, South Africa, on 19 September 2007.
Broad bowled the over in the 19th over of India's innings, and Yuvraj cleared the boundary with every delivery. The sequence followed a heated exchange with England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff, adding drama to an already explosive passage of play. Yuvraj finished with 58 from only 16 balls.
The six sixes also produced another record: Yuvraj reached his fifty from 12 balls, then the fastest half-century in international cricket involving Test-playing nations. He became the first batter to hit six sixes in an international match and the first to do so in Twenty20 cricket. The achievement is often confused with similar feats by Herschelle Gibbs and Sir Garfield Sobers, who had previously hit six sixes in an over in other forms of senior cricket.
