- Yuvraj Singh – 4.5/5:
It is so intricate to believe the fact that it was in this very tournament 17 years ago when Yuvraj made his ODI debut. Like red wine, getting better with age, Yuvraj put forward another brutal yet emphatic batting performance, as his game-changing knock was the difference between India putting up just 280 and eventually ending with 319.
Coming in with the batsmen struggling a bit, the southpaw went berserk from the very beginning and his 53 off 32 deliveries just changed the complexion of the game. It wasn’t surprising when he was named the Man of the Match.
