The night of T20 World Cup 2007 is still remembered in the heart of every Indian fan. That night, Yuvraj Singh immortalized his name in cricket history by hitting 6 sixes in 6 balls against England. The victim of this memorable over was England’s young fast bowler Stuart Broad, whose career was just beginning at that time. That match is over, but the memory of that over is still one of the most talked about incidents of cricket. Now years later, Stuart Broad’s father Chris Broad has made a revelation that has surprised the fans. He told that his son, after seeing a gift related to Yuvraj Singh, threw it in the dustbin in anger.

Father gave Yuvraj’s jersey, son threw it in the dustbin

Former England cricketer and 1986-87 Ashes hero Chris Broad recently told in an interview that he once gave Yuvraj Singh’s autographed jersey as a Christmas gift to his son Stuart. Chris Broad told, “My son’s sense of humor was a bit weak at that time. I thought of surprising him by giving him Yuvraj’s signed jersey, but as soon as he opened the box, he threw the jersey straight in the dustbin without saying anything.”

England became a legend even after 6 sixes

However, even after that over, Stuart Broad proved himself and became one of the great bowlers in the history of English cricket. Broad has played 167 Tests, 121 ODIs and 56 T20 matches in his international career. He took 604 wickets in Tests, which is the second highest figure for England. At the same time, he took 178 wickets in ODI and 65 wickets in T20. He retired in 2023 after an illustrious career and is now counted among the great players of English cricket.

Former IPL chairman Lalit Modi has been in the headlines recently. He released Harbhajan Singh’s video of slapping S Sreesanth. Now he has revealed that once he took a pledge and said that if an Indian cricketer takes 6 sixes in an over or 6 wickets in one over, he will get a Porsche car in a gift. He made this promise during the 2007 T20 World Cup.

Lalit Modi told Michael Clarke’s podcast that the 2007 T20 World Cup had not started. He went to the Indian dressing room before that and said, “If any player takes 6 sixes or 6 wickets in an over, then I will gift the Porsche car to the player on my behalf.”

Did Yuvraj Singh get Porsche?

The Indian team won the 2007 T20 World Cup title, performing amazing. Incidentally, in this World Cup, Yuvraj Singh hit 6 sixes in 6 balls against Stuart Broad, a young bowler of England. Lalit Modi told how Yuvraj Singh reminded him about his vow.

Lalit Modi told that Yuvraj had looked at him on the boundary after hitting 6 sixes. He said, “Yuvraj was looking at me. He picked up the bat and ran towards me while running and said, ‘I want my porsche car.’ I said first give me the bat (which hit 6 sixes). “

According to the promise, Lalit Modi gifted the car to Yuvraj Singh. At the same time, the bat with which Yuvraj Singh hit 6 sixes, is still kept in Lalit Modi’s house as a sign of that proud moment of the 2007 World Cup.
