Stuart Broad Reaction to Yuvraj Singh six sixes: 19 September 2007 was the day when Yuvraj Singh hit 6 sixes off 6 balls of Stuart Broad. It has been 17 years since that historic incident that happened in the T20 World Cup 2007. Today, Broad is counted among the legendary cricketers who have taken more than 800 wickets in international cricket. He recently re-watched that historic innings of Yuvraj Singh, on which his surprising reaction has come to the fore.
In the India vs England match, Yuvraj Singh got angry due to an argument with Andrew Flintoff. This anger filled him with passion, the consequences of which Stuart Broad had to suffer. In that match, India batted first and scored 218 runs. Broad came to bowl in the 19th over of Team India’s innings. Yuvraj Singh created history by hitting 6 sixes on all his balls. With this, he completed his fifty in just 12 balls.
Stuart Broad’s reaction
Stuart Broad jokingly recalled that era and said, “I have never seen that match again. I have to admit that I was lucky that one of my balls was not declared a no-ball. Maybe 7 sixes could have been hit in that over.” Referring to the no-ball, Stuart Broad talked about the fourth ball of that memorable over. That ball was well outside the off stump and its height was above Yuvraj’s waist. Still, Yuvraj hit the ball across the boundary in the direction of point.
Let us remind you that in the year 2022, Jaspreet Bumrah also reminded Stuart Broad of Yuvraj Singh’s 6 sixes. Actually, in 2022, India vs England match was being played at Edgbaston. Jaspreet Bumrah was batting, who scored 35 runs in the over while batting in a dashing style.
