His former Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Gautam Gambhir seems to be extremely proud of the 23-year-old’s achievements.

Yadav took to Twitter to wish one of the most important figures who helped shape his career. He shared a picture with Gambhir while they were playing together in the KKR team. He wished for his former skipper to be blessed with a lot of happiness and hoped for him to achieve success in whatever he does.

‘Wish you a very happy birthday @GautamGambhir bhai. Hope you achieve success in everything you do and be blessed with lots of happiness. Have a great year!,’ he wrote on the micro-blogging site.
