One of India's most loved cricketers and a genuine match-winner in his prime, Yuvraj Singh first showcased the talent he possessed in the early 2000s, after featuring in the Under-19 World Cup

Three years into his career, he had already made some key contributions for India but had failed to reach the three-figure mark in 50-over cricket.

However, in April 2003, a month after India had reached the World Cup final, he achieved the mark in Dhaka against Bangladesh, making an unbeaten 102 off 85 balls to help India post a match-winning total.

A year later, in a Test match against Pakistan at Lahore, he once again rose to the occasion scoring his first Test hundred, his 112 helping India get out of trouble after Umar Gul had rocked the top-order initially.
