The unflinching Gabbar of the Indian cricket team Shikhar Dhawan celebrated his birthday yesterday. As always these cricket team boys make the most of birthdays. From smearing the person with the whole cake to making him drenched with all sorts of other food ingredients available in the room, they really give a tough time to the birthday boy.
Dhawan has amassed 1,924 runs at 43.72 from 27 Tests with the help of six hundreds. His ODIs numbers are on point as well. They are to the count of 3,870 at an average of 43.97 runs from a total of 93 matches.
Infact, even BCCI too gave in into the indulgence. They took to Twitter and uploaded a video with the caption “We are not letting the birthday boy @SDhawan25 escape today.”
Here is what other cricketers and organisations tweeted to wish Gabbar a very happy birthday. These few tweets caught our eyes amongst all the rest.
Peer Suresh Raina seemed to have congratulated Dhawan with all his heart. He tweeted: Happy birthday to the Gabbar of #TeamIndia Bahut yaarana lagta hai hahaha! @SDhawan25 Have a great one my friend! Hope you score a 100 on your big day and take India to a win!#INDvsSL

Paaaji also wished Dhawan a birthday in his own way. He wrote: “Janamdin mubarak ho mere veer nu @SDhawan25 lots of love brother.. keep shining on an off the field…rab Mehr Kare” How sweeeeettt, really!

Although, everybody’s messages were heart-touching and fun-filled, BCCI’s video just gave us some insider access to the green room. The cricketer was wearing his white shorts and sported a shirtless look. Cake, ketchup and so much more glided down Shikhar’s body. Have a look at the video
