Termed as one of the best performances by an allrounder, it came in one of the controversial 7-match ODI series (Mumbai 26/11 incident) against England. Batting first on a bouncy pitch in Indore, India were struggling at 29-3. Yuvraj thrived under pressure to score a wonderful century (118 off 122 balls), helping India to post a match-winning total of 292.

After losing their opening wicket cheaply, England regrouped very well to reach 102-1 at the end of 23 overs. And again the man with a golden arm (Yuvraj) came to rescue, breaking the 96-run partnership.

With his slingy action, Yuvraj bagged four top-order wickets, leaving England stumbled at the end. Yuvraj was adjudged as man of the match for his one-man show, leading India to a 2-0 lead in the series.
