Yuvraj Singh predicts his six sixes record will soon be broken
Former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh expressed surprise that his record of hitting six sixes in a single T20I over has stood since 2007. Speaking at the launch of his nutrition supplement, Protocol32, Singh suggested that the evolution of the modern game means the feat will likely be broken soon.
Singh, who achieved the milestone against England's Stuart Broad during the inaugural T20 World Cup, remains the only Indian to have accomplished this in international cricket. While players like Kieron Pollard and Dipendra Singh Airee have since emulated the feat, the record remains a significant benchmark.
During the same period, Singh praised Abhishek Sharma for his dedication and rise in the ICC T20I rankings. Sharma recently scored 113 runs off 38 balls against New Zealand, helping India secure a series win. When responding to a playful challenge from Singh regarding scoring a fifty off 12 balls, Sharma noted that such milestones are not the primary focus of batters, emphasizing team success and preparation instead.
