Lalit Modi, founder of the Indian Premier League, has revisited one of cricket’s most unforgettable episodes. Before the 2007 T20 World Cup, Modi made a bold promise to the Indian dressing room: anyone hitting six sixes or taking six wickets in a single over would receive a Porsche. Speaking to the former Australian captain Michael Clarke on his show Beyond23, Lalit Modi said, “Before the 2007 T20 World Cup, I told everyone that whoever would hit six sixes or take six wickets in an over would receive a Porsche." A few days later, Yuvraj Singh achieved the impossible, smashing six consecutive sixes off Stuart Broad of England. Modi was on the boundary when the event unfolded. Still chuckling at the memory, Modi said, “Yuvraj, looks at me on the boundary…he raises the bat and he comes running to me, ‘I want my Porsche’, I said, give me the bat."

The bat remains on display at Modi’s home as a reminder of one of Indian cricket’s most historic feats. The incident was part of a larger narrative, as India went on to win the inaugural T20 World Cup under MS Dhoni’s captaincy, defeating Pakistan in a final etched into cricketing folklore. Yuvraj’s explosive performance sparked a nationwide cricketing frenzy, which later paved the way for the Indian Premier League. Modi’s recollection highlights the lighter, human side of cricket’s most intense competitions. The Porsche promise and the bat exchange remain symbolic of the camaraderie and spontaneity within the team. Emphasizing the enduring impact of that tournament on Indian cricket and its fans, Modi added, “Yuvraj’s six-sixes blitz and India’s 2007 World Cup win over Pakistan not only made history but also laid the foundation for the IPL."
