7 Best moments from India's memorable 2011 World Cup triumph

#6 Yuvi filling in as the all-rounder

Yuvraj's performances were invaluable to the team

Yuvraj Singh's performances in the World Cup epitomized the champion player that he was. He came into the World Cup with doubts over his form and fitness, but set the stage alight with his incredible displays with both bat and ball. Four man-of-the-Match awards, 362 runs and 15 wickets paved way for the Man-of-the-Tournament award.

He scored 50s against England, Ireland, Netherlands in the group stages before scoring a fantastic hundred against West Indies in testing conditions in Chennai. He scored a fifty of high quality in the quarter-finals against Australia in a tense run chase.

After a rare failure in the semi-final against Pakistan, he capped off the memorable tournament by guiding India home in the run chase against Sri Lanka in the company of MS Dhoni.

He was a revelation with the ball as he stepped up as the 5th bowler in crunch matches by picking up crucial wickets at a reasonable economy rate.

Most remarkably, Yuvraj played the tournament when he was battling cancer. Though it was diagnosed only later in the year, Yuvraj was suffering from serious health issues throughout the tournament. This surely is an inspirational story to look up to.
