Fifteen years after smashing England pacer Stuart Broad for six consecutive sixes in an over during the ICC T20 World Cup, former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh was seen relishing that moment once again with his son.

Yuvraj took to Twitter to share a heartwarming video, in which he can be seen watching himself hit Broad all over the park with his son Orion.

On this day in 2007, former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh became the first-ever T20I batter and second batter in international cricket after South Africa's Herschelle Gibbs (ODI) to smash six sixes in an over, against England at Durban during the ICC T20 World Cup 2007.

It was the Super Eight phase of the World Cup. After losing their first matches, both India and England desperately needed a win to boost their chances at semis.

India was dominating their second Super Eight match against England, at 171/3 in 18 overs after choosing to bat first. After exchanging a few heated words with all-rounder Andrew Flintoff, Yuvraj was all fired up, all set to unleash his hard-hitting game against England.

But what happened later was unprecedented in the shortest format of the game.

Stuart Broad, who came to bowl the 19th over, was smashed for 6,6,6,6,6,6. Flintoff and Yuvraj had an argument and it was Broad, who paid the price.

With this, he also reached his half-century, the fastest in T20I cricket history, in just 12 balls.

"And he has put it away...YES! Six sixes in an over. Yuvraj Singh finishes things off in style!" these words of commentator and former cricketer Ravi Shastri were the finishing touches that this remarkable moment needed and deserved. These words still ring in the ears of millions of fans.

Thanks to these sixes, India finished their innings at 218/4 in 20 overs.
