"It just ended my son's career," Chris Bord told Yuvraj

New Delhi, Dt

Yuvraj created a sensation in the 2007 T20 World Cup by hitting six sixes in a single over off England fast bowler Stuart Broad. Recalling the incident, Yuvraj said that Stuart Broad's father and former England cricketer Chris Broad was the match referee and he came to me the next day and said that he had almost ended his son's career. Now you have to give me an autograph on the t-shirt.

"Respecting Broad's request, I gave him my India T-shirt and wrote a message for Stuart on it," said the veteran Indian all-rounder. I wrote in it that even in my bowling it is five sixes, so I know how it feels at such a time. All the best for the future of England cricket. Broad currently ranks among the best bowlers in the world, UVA added. I can't imagine an Indian bowler giving up six sixes in an over and then his career being as long and effective as Broad's.

"There was a literal confrontation between me and Flintoff before that over," Yuvraj said, chewing on the past. Also a few weeks ago, Mascarenhas hit five sixes in my bowling. When I hit six sixes in Broad's bowling I first looked at Flintoff and then at Mascarenhas.
