The Indian cricketing legend Sunil Gavaskar turned 69 today as the cricketing fraternity is busy wishing him on his birthday. When it comes to birthday messages, there is no one better than Virender Sehwag nowadays who always comes up with hilarious tweets to leave a wide grin on birthday boy’s face. He has done the same while wishing Gavaskar on the special occasion and has termed him as ‘Dabangg’ which means the person who is fearless or resolute.

During his illustrious career, he was renowned as one of the best batsmen in world cricket. He used to face the likes of Malcolm Marshall and Jeff Thompson among many fearlessly, the attitude which was lacking in the Indian team when he first came into the side. He went on to score a whopping 10122 runs in Test cricket and it is no surprise that he is considered as a legend.

Sehwag’s wish

Virender Sehwag’s knack of playing with words and using puns in his birthday wishes has made him one of the popular figures on social media. He lived up to his reputation while wishing Sunil Gavaskar and recalled the courage he showed while facing the fearful bowlers in his tweet.

“Today, #SunnySideUp, for a man who taught a- not very high on confidence generation, ‘Fusfusana Band-India bano Dabanng’. He was truly a Dabanng for his courage to face bowlers who looked like killing you, without any fear and protective gear. Happy Birthday Sunil Gavaskar,” he tweeted in his wish.

The birthday boy has turned into the commentator after hanging his boots in international cricket. He is currently in England covering the ongoing series between India and the hosts and will be in action soon for the ODI series which will begin on Thursday. He is expected to stay in the United Kingdom for the five-match Test series beginning on August 1.
