The highlight of Yuvraj's stellar career was when he took on England's Stuart Broad and tonked six consecutive sixes in one over. That over is still fresh in every cricket fan’s memory when the left-hander stamped himself all over the inaugural World T20 in 2007. India went on to win that match and then defeated Australia and Pakistan in the semi-final and final respectively to clinch the title. Yuvraj is best remembered for playing a stellar role in India's World Cup winning campaign in 2011 with his all-round heroics. He was known to raise the bar of his game in multi-nation ICC tournaments. In a glittering career spanning over 15 years, Yuvraj Singh represented in 304 ODI and 40 Tests, besides featuring in 58 T2O internationals for the 'Men in Blue'. The belligerent strokemaker amassed runs 8701 ODIs laced with 14 tons and 52 half centuries.
