Let's make this birthday one to remember.

77 years old (Born on July 21, 1947)

Happy Birthday to the ever-dependable Chetan Chauhan! You were India's rock-solid opener, bravely facing fiery bowlers without flinching. Your memorable partnerships with Sunil Gavaskar gave nightmares to opposing teams and joy to millions of cricket fans. Playing 40 Test matches for India, your gritty innings remain etched in our hearts—especially those courageous knocks against Australia and Pakistan.

From Maharashtra's pitches to Delhi’s grounds, you showcased consistency that earned you the prestigious Arjuna Award in 1981—a testament not just to talent but also sheer determination. May your birthday be as timelessly classy as your batting style—and far less stressful than facing a West Indies pace attack!
