For the second time in two matches, Yuvraj Singh smashed four sixes in an over – three of them consecutive – to turn back the clock in the semifinal of the Road Safety World Series T20 at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium on Wednesday. Playing for India Legends, Yuvraj smashed West Indies Legends legspinner M Nagamootoo for four sixes in the 19th over, almost threatening to repeat his 2007 heroics of six sixes at one stage.

Yuvraj smashed the first three balls for six before Nagamootoo managed a dot ball in the fourth delivery. The fifth ball went over the ropes again before another dot ball ended the over. In the next over, Yuvraj sent Suliemann Benn for a couple of sixes to finish on 49 off 20 as India Legends finished on 218 for 3 in 20 overs.

Prior to Yuvraj’s heroics, Sachin Tendulkar had turned back the clock scoring 65 off 42 balls including three sixes and six fours. Virender Sehwag made 35 off 17 to give the team a quick start while Mohammed Kaif (27) and Yusuf Pathan (37) chipped in too.

Yuvraj had hit four consecutive sixes in India Legend’s previous match, against South Africa Legends on Saturday.

“I was looking to hit the fifth consecutive six because I remember that there was one dot ball in the over. And I was waiting for the bowler to bowl in my areas. So after the fourth six, I was looking for the fifth six but there were also two overs to go so I decided to rotate the strike and bat till the end to have a big score. The wicket was really good and South Africa had won the last game. So I wanted to bat till the end and I am happy to do that,” Yuvraj had said then in the post-match press conference.
