India v/s England - A Replay from T20 World Cup 2007

Yes, you already know that India's situation is reminiscent of 2007 T20 World Cup! India face England in the Super Eights after losing in the first game of Super Eights, making the England tie, a Do or Die situation! I agree with you, that the phrase is very cliched, but then such has been Indian team consistency since ages!

And now, you already know all the scenarios, which India needs to qualify for the semis!

So, before we give you the previews of the England v/s India clash, I decided to bring back the memories of that tie in 2007! Obviously, with a little thanks to this Score Card!

Highlights of India v/s England T20 WC 2007 match:

Yuvraj hits six sixes in an over off Stuart Broad!
Virendra Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir give India, a pretty solid start! The first wicket fell on 136!
Robin Utthapa was still a part of the team!

After the initial start India got, India were 155/3, I told you Robin Utthapa was a part of the team!
Flintoff got into an argument with Yuvraj Singh, thanks to a sledging match, with captain MS Dhoni, urging Yuvi, or was he?!
Yuvraj hits six sixes in an over off Stuart Broad!
Thanks to Yuvraj's blitzkreig effort of 58 in 16 balls and in 14 minutes, India finished with a total of 218 on board!
England's top order fired, as much as English batsmen can!
England were 171 for 5 after the 18th over. At the same stage in their innings, India were 171 for 3 after which Yuvraj hits six sixes in an over Stuart Broad!

Yes, the match is mostly remembered for Yuvraj hit six sixes in an over off Stuart Broad! Of course, it may not happen again at this World Cup, at tonight's match!

Tonight, Yuvraj could hit six sixes in an over off any other bowler as well! Amen!
