Let's make this birthday one to remember.

46 years old (Born on January 27, 1979)

Happy Birthday, Daniel Vettori! The man who spun his way into cricket history with more international appearances than most players have pairs of socks. Your batting was as reliable as your glasses—steady, stylishly understated, and always there when needed. With runs piling up faster than candles on your birthday cake, you tied records others only dream about.

From spinning webs around batsmen to smashing boundaries at crucial moments—you've done it all with grace (and a touch of geek-chic). May this year bring you joy equal to the countless times you've made Kiwi fans cheer loudly from their couches!
