#4 The fight between Yuvraj Singh and Andrew Flintoff, which saw Stuart Broad emerge as the loser

And as they say the rest is history
And as they
say
the rest is history

Well, I must say this was certainly the game changer. No one knows what would have happened had Andrew Flintoff not angered the Punjabi all-rounder. Yuvraj Singh was certainly one of the hottest heads in the dressing room. The best way a team could have sledged him is to have left him alone and let him play his natural game.

However, poor Englishman Andrew Flintoff probably did not know this and he tried to sledge Yuvraj. Both the players engaged in a heated conversation after which Stuart Broad came from the other end to bowl the 18th over of India's innings. Broad tried bowling over the wicket, round the wicket, outside the off stump, and a short delivery, but nothing worked as all of his deliveries were deposited outside the boundary line by Yuvraj.
