Let's make this birthday one to remember.

39 years old (Born on July 29, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Emma Sampson! You're faster than cake disappears at a birthday party and your bowling has always been quicker than our reactions to wish you on social media. Retired by 23 after making cricket history—30 ODIs, five Twenty20s, and that one unforgettable Test—you've set records others chase their entire careers.

Even though you've hung up those speedy shoes early (probably because they couldn't keep up!), your fierce spirit still remains an inspiration today. May this year bring as much excitement and happiness into your life as batsmen felt fear facing you down the pitch. Cheers to another timeless innings ahead!
