Smriti Mandhana celebrated her 25th birthday on Sunday and wishes poured in from her India teammates, other cricketers and sportspersons at large. Mandhana made her ODI and T20I debuts in 2013 against Bangladesh. She played her first Test a year later, in 2014 against England. On the occasion of her birthday, Mandhana received several wishes from former and senior cricketers including Yuvraj Singh and Dinesh Karthik as well as the former coach of India women’s cricket team WV Raman.

Yuvraj Singh tweeted a birthday wish for Mandhana and wrote, “Happy birthday to the dashing Indian opener. Khoob run banate raho, chhake chauke marte raho aur desh ko jitate raho (I wish you make a lot of runs, hit many boundaries and keep winning matches for the country). Best wishes for a successful year ahead.”
