One of the biggest match-winners for India in the white-ball format, Yuvraj Singh hammered England's Stuart Broad for six sixes in an over on this day in 2007 at Kingsmead, Durban in the inaugural ICC World T20. It's already been 15 years since the mind-boggling feat was achieved but it's impact has not aged at all.

The memories of that pleasant evening are still fresh in the minds of every Indian cricket fan and Yuvraj too took to his social media profiles to reminisce the unforgettable moment. Commemorating 15 years of his remarkable feat, Yuvraj sat down with a very special partner to rewind the clock and witness his heroics as he got under the skin of Broad and took him to the cleaners.

In a video posted by him (Yuvraj) on his Twitter and Instagram account, the 40-year-old southpaw can be seen sitting on a sofa with his nine-month-old son Orion Keech Singh in his lap and rejoicing the historical moment.

He captioned the video as, "Couldn’t have found a better partner to watch this together with after 15 years."

Yuvraj Singh scored a 12-ball fifty that day against England and eventually got out to a score of 58 off just 16 deliveries. His knock saw him become the player to score the fastest fifty in the history of T20 internationals - a record that still stands tall and is yet to be broken. In fact, no player has scored a fifty in less number of balls as compared to him across formats in international cricket.

Riding on the back of Yuvraj's jaw-dropping innings that saw him hit seven sixes and three fours, India defeated England by 18 runs and made their case stronger for a semi-final berth. Before hitting Broad for six consecutive sixes, Yuvraj was involved in a brawl with England's premier allrounder Andrew Flintoff.

Yuvraj has admitted during sveral public apperances that Flintoff's incident had fired him up and he was driven to achieve something special for the team that day. Yuvraj has been playing for the India Legends in the ongoing Road Safety World Series.
