Screws India in world cup final.
Wins RCB their opening IPL7 match.![]()
Stunned. Today was a great game for Yuvi.
and forgotten one for RCB..
to be fair those boundaries are too small.. ICC needs to look at this.. even an edge carries to six against a spinner lol (Yuvi vs Samson)..
Have been saying so since he first cracked the international scene - Yuvi is easily India's biggest and cleanest hitter I've ever seen play.
Sehwag, MSD, even vintage Sachin do not get close to the ease with which this guy smashes big monsters.
Has been a pleasure watching him bat.
Pity about his constant smug face. That was kinda annoying. But funny at the same time.
Yuvay.
Will checkout the highlights. He's awesome to watch when he gets going.68 from 28 tonight against Delhi.
9 sixes! :6
They didn't measure distances those days, but rather than Sehwag and Sachin Ganguly used to hit it absolutely miles off the spinners. He was never a strong man, but his timing was insane and he hit quite a few out of the ground. .

He was never a strong man, but his timing was insane and he hit quite a few out of the ground. Ditto for the erstwhile pundit Navjot Sidhu who was especially fond of the spinners.
Saqs was talking about effortlessness in stroke making too.
Plus Yuvi has a wide array of six hitting strokes.
Don't think anyone in Indian team (including vintage Sachin) comes close to his repertoire of six hitting strokes.
One word involving Sachin and all the knives come out.
Yuvraj was MORE effortless in hitting sixes than Sachin ever was.
Yuvraj having wide array of six hitting strokes DOES NOT mean Sachin had poor range of 6 hitting strokes.
But in death overs, Yuvraj's superiority over Sachin in 6 hitting was clear as day.
My view.
You said Yuvi has wider array of six hitting shots than Sachin. I just pointed out that ain't true. SRT has executed some sick sixes over the years. The upper cuts, hooks, slog sweeps, flicks. straight down and even scoops. Yuvraj looks effortless but doesn't have more shots than Sach, dont say such things in hype/;
On this day, 19th September....

Yuvraj Singh became the second batter, after Herschelle Gibbs, to hit six sixes in an over in international cricket. The occasion was the World T20 encounter against England, the venue Kingsmead, Durban, and the bowler under the withering onslaught was Stuart Broad. Yuvraj, spurred by comments from Andrew Flintoff before the penultimate over, launched the first ball over cow corner; the second - measured at 111 yards - disappeared over backward square leg; the third and fourth rocketed over extra cover and point; the fifth flew over midwicket; and the sixth six landed in the stands at long-on. Yuvraj's 12-ball half-century is a record in all forms of international cricket.
