#2 Yuvraj and Flintoff
The inaugural T-20 World Cup in South Africa not only provided thrilling cricket but also brought to light instances of aggression and passion. Yuvraj Singh, India’s hero in the World Cup win was involved in one of these instances.
India was facing England in a must-win match in Group E in Durban where the action unfolded. India got off to a good start riding on half-centuries from Sehwag and Gambhir. English bowlers were frustrated and Flintoff lost his cool when Yuvraj was batting. There was an altercation between the two which was put to rest by the umpire.
However, Yuvraj had some other plans and he decided to silent Flintoff with his bat. It was poor Stuart Broad who had to face the brunt of Yuvraj’s wrath. the Southpaw smashed him for 6 sixes in the over and created history by becoming one of the four batsmen in the world to do so.
Flintoff was silenced in style and India eventually won the match by 18 runs.
