Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on September 09, 1984)

Happy Birthday, James Hildreth! You're as timeless as your stylish cover drives and occasional surprise medium-pace bowling. Since your Somerset debut in 2003, you've effortlessly dispatched bowlers around the park—proving age is just a number (though we’ll politely avoid mentioning what that number actually is)!

From confident centuries to clutch match-winning knocks, your bat has consistently spoken louder than words—and occasionally surprised us with handy wickets too. Watching you play has been like appreciating fine wine; it only gets better through the seasons.

Here's wishing a fantastic birthday to cricket's evergreen entertainer—long may your innings continue to amuse and impress!
