Yuvraj Singh turns 41
Yuvraj Singh, one of the most prodigious middle-order white-ball batters ever produced, turned 41 on Monday. He was pivotal in India's triumphs in the 2007 World T20 and 2011 ICC World Cup.
A man of big occasions
Yuvraj was named the Player of the Tournament as India lifted the World Cup in 2011. He became the first-ever player with the double of over 300 runs and 15 wickets.
Century and a fivewicket haul in ODIs
Yuvraj is one of three players alongside Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly to have registered a century and a five-wicket haul in ODIs. Yuvraj achieved this feat against England in November 2008.
Yuvraj smashes 6 sixesin an over
Yuvraj smashed England pacer Stuart Broad for 6 sixes in an over in the 2007 ICC World T20, a feat that remains unbreakable. He also slammed a half-century off 12 balls, the fastest in T20Is to date.
