Yuvaraj Six Balls Sixers in Broad bowling against England

Yuvraj Singh became the first player in Twenty20 history to hit six sixes in an over in India's match against England.

Stuart Broad was the luckless bowler in the World Twenty20 Super Eights match.

The devastating barrage from Yuvraj, 25, helped him reach his half-century off just 12 balls - the fastest 50 in international cricket.




Yuvraj's onslaught began in the 18th over when he hit consecutive fours off Andrew Flintoff before appearing to square up to the England all-rounder.

A fired-up Yuvraj then took out his anger on 21-year-old Broad in the 19th over.

# 19th over - Broad to Yuvraj:Ball one - hoicks over cow corner, between midwicket and mid-on
# Ball two - flicks off the legs, into the crowd beyond backward square leg
# Ball three - steps to leg and smashes the ball over extra cover
# Ball four - wide full toss steered over backward point
# Ball five - thrashes over midwicket, down on one knee
# Ball six - leans back and smacks over wide mid-on
