England v India, T20 WC, Durban, 19th Sept

Some other noticeable things apart from the obvious ones,

1) Gambhir and Sehwag's opening partnership of 136 yesterday was 2nd highest partnership for all wickets in Twenty20 after 145 by Gayle and Smith against SA in the opening match of this WC.

2) Yuvraj hit seven sixes in his innings, the second most after Gayle's 10 sixes in his 117 against SA in the opening match.

3) Sehwag, Gambhir and Yuvraj struck fifties in the Indian innings, making it the first time that three batsmen have score half-centuries in the same innings.

4) Stuart Broad conceded 36 runs off an over which is the most expensive in Twenty20 beating Daryl Tuffey's 30 against Australia.

5) Yuvraj and Dhoni added 61 for the 4th wicket off only 19 balls out of which Yuvraj scored 58.

Collingwood about Broad and Yuvraj,

The best striking I've ever seen," he declared about Yuvraj.

He also said Broad would have to live with the tag of being the first bowler to be hit for six sixes in T20. "The format of the game is such that it was waiting to happen and one bowler would go for six sixes in an over sooner than later," he said. "Unfortunately, it was Stuart. It is up to us, the team-mates, to stand by him. He is a fine talent."
