Happy Birthday, Laxmi Ratan Shukla! The man who bowled his way into our hearts back in 1999 and never looked back. Your right-arm medium pace deliveries were always spot-on, making batsmen scratch their heads wondering what just happened. And let's not forget your incredible leadership that brought Bengal its first-ever Vijay Hazare Trophy in 2012—truly a moment etched forever in cricketing history.Today, we celebrate not just your wickets and trophies but also your timeless charm and infectious enthusiasm on the field. May you continue to bowl over life's challenges with ease (and maybe teach us all how to swing it like Shukla!). Cheers!
