Let's make this birthday one to remember.

56 years old (Born on May 02, 1969)

Happy Birthday, Brian Lara! The man who made bowlers reconsider their career choices and scorekeepers run out of ink. Your legendary 400 not-out still haunts cricket grounds worldwide—rumor has it some bowlers are still recovering from nightmares!

From your iconic innings at Antigua to that unforgettable 501 for Warwickshire, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer (and opponents plenty of headaches). May your birthday be as timeless as your batting records and filled with more joy than a packed Caribbean stadium celebrating another Lara boundary.

Here's wishing you endless happiness—and may life always pitch you easy deliveries!
