Six-sixes-an-over Yuvraj Singh was the centre of attention at a reception hosted for the Indian cricket team by Indian High Commissioner Shiv Shanker Mukherjee at his London residence last Saturday.
Guests were excited at the prospect of a repeat by Yuvraj in England's crucial clash against England yesterday, especially after his reply to a question at a press briefing as to what he would advise England skipper Paul Collingwood to instruct Stuart Broad (who he had hit for six sixes in an over in Durban two years ago).
Yuvraj had smiled and said: "Maybe I would say, 'Go hit him in the head, maybe bowl him a beamer, just get him off the field'".
The answer brought to mind the report on the front page of a London tabloid yesterday ("A smash in the face, a kick in the testicles, and long live Ahmadinejad") in reference to the carnage in Iran following the re-election of president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
However, Yuvraj was not about to be drawn into a comment to a similar question from a guest about his prospects of repeating his T20 record feat.
He had obviously learnt his lesson from the experience of skipper Dhoni who has been receiving a roasting at the hands of the Indian press for an allegedly smart reply to a reporter's question.
