Rohit Sharma, one of India's most iconic cricketers, celebrated his 38th birthday with an outpouring of warm wishes from former teammates and fellow cricketers. Among them was KL Rahul, who took to Instagram to write, "Happy birthday Ro, wish you the very best." Shikhar Dhawan reminisced about their long-standing partnership, calling Rohit his "partner in crime." Yuvraj Singh praised Rohit for building both records and a legacy, while Suresh Raina highlighted his leadership and calm presence on the field, wishing him continued success.
Rohit’s journey began in 2007 with his debut against Ireland and early contributions in India’s T20 World Cup triumph. Since then, he has transformed into one of the finest openers in cricket. In Tests, he has amassed over 4,300 runs, and in ODIs, he boasts 11,000+ runs including a world-record 264. He remains the only player to have scored three ODI double centuries.
In World Cup history, he has been especially dominant. Rohit has scored 1,575 runs across editions, including five centuries in the 2019 tournament-a record for the most tons in a single World Cup. Under his ODI captaincy, India clinched the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy and reached the World Cup final in 2023.
His blend of aggression and composure has made him a beloved figure in Indian cricket. As tributes pour in, fans and players alike continue to admire his enduring influence on the game.
