It is a special day for Indian skipper and senior opener Rohit Sharma. He turned 35-year-old on Saturday, as he celebrates his birthday when he seems to be struggling to lead his side, Mumbai Indians (MI), to its first win of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season. Nevertheless, the cricketing fraternity has tried to cheer him up, showering him with the best wishes of the day as we look at some here.

Former Indian skipper Virat Kohli wishes his part, followed by former Indian finisher Suresh Raina, who wrote, “My best wishes to the master of cricket @ImRo45 champ. You have made all of us proud & inspired generations to come! May God bless you with the best always.” Also, former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir was among the ones to wish.

My inspiration since I was a youngster and inspiring me every day now at @mipaltan.”

Rohit’s Indian teammate Ajinkya Rahane also wished his national skipper. In contrast, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) authored, “400 international matches, 15,733 international runs and going strong, only batter to hit 3 ODI double tons, 2007 ICC World T20 & 2013 ICC Champions Trophy winner. Here’s wishing #TeamIndia captain @ImRo45 a very happy birthday.”
