Legendary cricketer and former team India head coach Ravi Shastri turned 60 on Friday, and birthday wishes are pouring in for him. Among those who wished him was legendary batter and Shastri’s teammate from his playing days, Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar came up with a witty wish, and Shastri replied in the same tone!
‘Happy birthday to a teammate and a friend who lives & breathes cricket and was always there to discuss cricket with me!’ Tendulkar wrote. ‘Hope you’re celebrating the day just like the doctor ordered, Ravi!’, he added, with a wink emoji.
Thank you, Big Boss. Means a lot.

After his retirement, Shastri became renowned for his commentary and he then went on to coach the senior national side.
