The sixer King

Before the emergence of Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh was considered as the greatest T20I batsman to have represented the Indian team. In other words, once can also say that he is the one who made the fans gain interest in the format when he hit six sixes in an over bowled by Stuart Broad and helped India win the 2007 World T20.

Yuvraj, also fondly called as the sixer king by his fans, is a crowd puller in spite of not being a regular in the current Indian side. The dashing southpaw is still in the scheme of things of Indian selectors unlike few players, who have retired from one format or played their last international match years ago and are still playing for World XI.

To back Yuvraj's case, he is not even a part of the Indian team for the Australia series and could have played for the World XI in the mean time. He has the ability to turn the game on its head in a matter of few balls and can be a perfect fit for any T20 side.
