Former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh has proven that he has still got it when he hit four sixes for India Legends off a single over by ex-West Indies player Mahendra Nagamootoo on Wednesday.
Yuvraj scored an unbeaten 49 off just 20 balls in the semifinal of the Road Safety World Series as India Legends progressed to the final.
Yuvraj’s knock, which comprised one four and six sixes, made every cricket fan reminisce about the time during the 2007 T20 World Cup when the India all-rounder hit six sixes off Stuart Broad.

The 39-year-old hit Nagamootoo for four sixes in five balls in the 19th over. He hit two more sixes off Sulieman Benn in the last over as India Legends set a target of 219, the highest score in the tournament so far. Captain Sachin Tendulkar, who was also adjudged Player of the Match, hit 65 off 42 balls.
Openers Virender Sehwag and Tendulkar added 56 runs for the first wicket. Mohammed Kaif contributed 27 off 21 balls before Yusuf Pathan (37* off 20) and Yuvraj took India Legends past 200.
India Legends will lock horns in the final with the winner of the semifinal on March 19 between Sri Lanka Legends and South Africa Legends. The Road Safety World Series final will be held on March 21 in Mumbai.
