Gambhir Turns 44; Receives Warm Wishes From Teammates And BCCI
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Former Indian opener and current men’s team head coach Gautam Gambhir turned 44 on Tuesday and the cricket world came together to celebrate! Adding to the excitement, India sealed a commanding Test series whitewash against the West Indies, with the second Test win coming at the Arun Jaitley Stadium — where Gambhir has a stand named in his honour.
Gambhir served as one of India's most successful opening batsmen from 2003 to 2016, forming a formidable partnership with Virender Sehwag.
He was the India's second-highest run-scorer with 393 runs in nine innings, including four fifties, in the 2011 World Cup. His crucial 97 runs in the final against Sri Lanka at Wankhede Stadium helped India chase down 275 and lifted the coveted trophy after 28 years.
