5 most memorable moments of the T20 World Cup history

The 2016 ICC T20 World Cup 2016 is about to get underway. It is the flagship event of the shortest format of the game. It is going to be the sixth edition of the tournament.Throughout these five editions, the spectators have witnessed many memorable moments. Whether it is Yuvraj’s breathtaking six sixes in an over, or Umar Gul’s five-wicket haul, the tournament has stored plethora of unforgettable moments in its archive. Many such moments have left an indelible impression in the viewers’ mind.Looking back at the previous editions, let us look at 5 most memorable moments from the T20 World Cup:

#1 Yuvraj\'s six sixes

Yuvraj took Broad to the cleaners

The dashing left-hander from India set the inaugural T20 World Cup on fire when he incredibly hit six sixes in an over. England bowler Stuart Broad was at the receiving end as Yuvraj unleashed breathtaking strokes ball after ball. Yuvraj also scored a 50 in the process off just 12 deliveries which is the fastest in any form of the game.

But there is an interesting story behind it. Before Broad’s over, Yuvraj and England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff had a heated conversation and according to Yuvraj it was the words of Flintoff that spurred him.

That little spur from Flintoff motivated Yuvraj to do something that very few have achieved in the history of the game. One has to feel sorry for the bowler.

This surely goes down as one of the most memorable moments in the T20 World Cup history.
