Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on April 18, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Jonathan Batty! Just like your lightning-fast stumpings behind the wickets for Surrey and Gloucestershire, may you swiftly catch all life's best moments today. From 1994 to 2009 at Surrey and then onto Gloucestershire until 2012, you've always been a safe pair of hands—though we still wonder how many bowlers owe their careers to your quick reflexes!

Here's hoping this birthday brings as much joy as that memorable century against Kent in 2003 or those countless catches that left batsmen shaking their heads. May life continue pitching perfect deliveries right into your gloves (and cake straight onto your plate)!
