Question

Who made the fastest 50 in twenty-20 cricket? Which country is he from?

Answer 1

Yuvraj Singh made the fastest Twenty20 fifty in the world against England in the Twenty20 World Cup in South Africa in September, 2007. It came of 12 balls. In the 17th over, he was provoked by Andrew Flintoff and became red with rage. He could have smacked Flintoff then and there, but was stopped by Mahendra Singh Dhoni and the Umpire. In the next over bowled by Stuart Broad, Yuvraj Singh was on strike. His score was 14 runs of 6 balls. In the next six balls, Yuvraj sent them all out of the stadium by hitting six sixes! He broke the following records:

1) Fastest T20 Fifty

2) Fastest Fifty in any form of the game

3) Six Sixes in an over

4) Longest T20 six (119 m overtaing Misbah-ul-Haq's 111m long six).

Answer 3

12 balls?   Man that's impressive!   I'd like to see that.      Is it on YouTube or something?

Ha ha ha!!!   That was brilliant!   I loved Flintoff's face after the second six.   Priceless!   I just felt sorry for Broad.   Poor bugger!

Cheers Crystal!
