Let's make this birthday one to remember.

57 years old (Born on March 23, 1968)

Happy Birthday, Mike Atherton! From leading England in a record-breaking 54 Test matches to being crowned Young Cricketer of the Year back in 1990—your cricketing journey has been nothing short of legendary. Who could forget your gritty determination at the crease or that iconic glare under pressure during countless innings?

And let's not overlook your memorable performances for England during the thrilling battles of the '96 Cricket World Cup. While bowlers tried their best (and often failed) to unsettle you, fans knew they were witnessing something special every time you stepped onto that pitch.

Cheers on another fantastic year ahead—you timeless legend!
