Yuvraj’s Six Sixes in an Over
All Indians enjoyed the six 6s in an over hit by Yuvraj. Obviously the batsman was spurred up by two events.
- Dhoni promoting himself up above Yuvraj
- Flintoff’s pep talk with Yuvraj
At the end of the day, it was a great night for millions of Indians in India and abroad. But spare a moment for young Stuart Broad….just in his second season into international cricket. His reaction after the fourth ball of 19th over tells all. Agony written all over his face. I feel what he would have gone through at that moment. 
Similar experience I and you have gone through. last year, when in an inter-division match of our company, a guy hit 4 sixes of my over. Whatever the spectators and did after that, all these thongs I felt were directed at me. Even when two people laughed, I thought they just cracked a joke around me. That was the situation. Normally, in such a situation, very few would come and spare some nice words to such a battered bowler. It almost happened, before the fourth ball of the 19th over as the entire England team converged to give advice to Stuart Broad. And after the fifth and sixth deliveries, no one, save for Darren Maddy, I think, who had a word of comfort for him. Surely in the interval, England players would have talked to him to raise the sinking spirit of such a young man. But the best of soothing words for Broad came from none other than Yuvraj, who said, “As a batsman it’s a great feeling, but as a bowler it’s not a good day obviously. You’re trying your best and it’s just not your day. Everyone has a bad day and I’m sure he (Broad) will have good days too.” At the end of the day, it’s a game after all, which is what Yuvraj seems to be saying to Stuart Broad in this picture.
