Cricket: Yuvraj Singh - Andrew Flintoff, the inspiration for the Six Sixes at the 2007 T20 World Cup.

Yuvraj Singh on Sunday interacted with former England Cricketer, Kevin Peterson on Instagram Live and revisited the glorious moment of hitting the six back to back sixes and a fastest fifty in a T20 match.

In 2007, T20 World Cup, held in South Africa, against England, Yuvraj smashed Stuart Broad for six consecutive sixes in an over which has since become an iconic moment in the history of the sport. It was believed that a war of words with English cricketer Andrew Flintoff had transpired the historic carnage. Yuvraj recalling the glorious moment said, "Freddie bowled two good balls and a yorker which I managed to hit for a boundary. 

He then came up to me and said this was a dash shot, he got pretty elaborative. He said I am gonna cut your throat off, I then replied saying see this bat in my hand? Do you know where I am going to hit you with this bat? I know I was so angry when I hit Broadie for six sixes, I looked at Dimitri Mascarenhas and then I looked at Freddie. Mascarenhas had hit me for five sixes in an ODI match so that is why I looked at him first. It was one of those games which we all will remember." 

This banter between Flintoff and Yuvraj Singh catapulted Yuvi's ruthless aggression in the 18th over, bowled by Stuart Broad when Yuvraj lambasted six consecutive maximums and helped India score 218 runs in 20 overs and eventually knocking England out of the tournament. He also scored the fastest T20 fifty, a record untouched till date.
