Pankaj Singh Recalls Yuvraj Singh's Praise, Stuart Broad Admits Missed No-Ball in Iconic Over

Pankaj Singh, a towering pacer from Rajasthan, made his India debut in 2014 but only played two Tests. Despite his limited international appearances, Singh has been a prolific wicket-taker in domestic cricket, amassing 472 wickets in First-Class matches and 118 in List A.

In 2016, Singh revealed that Yuvraj Singh had hailed him as the "best bowler in domestic cricket" after dismissing him in the Duleep Trophy. Singh recently revisited the comment, acknowledging Yuvraj's expertise and the significance of his praise.

Meanwhile, England's Stuart Broad has reflected on the infamous over in the 2007 T20 World Cup where Yuvraj Singh smashed him for six consecutive sixes. Broad admitted that Yuvraj could have hit seven sixes if not for a missed no-ball call.

Broad, who was bowling from over the wicket, delivered a full toss that Yuvraj dispatched over point for six. Upon reviewing the footage, Broad realized that the ball could have been called a waist-high no-ball, potentially giving Yuvraj the opportunity to hit a seventh six.

"I've never watched that back, but I must admit, I got lucky to get away with a no ball," Broad confessed to Michael Atherton on Sky Sports.

Singh's domestic success and Broad's candid admission highlight the impact of Yuvraj Singh's batting prowess. Yuvraj's ability to dominate bowlers of all calibers has left an enduring legacy in cricket history.
