The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) sent Kapil Dev birthday wishes on his 65th birthday this past Saturday. Kapil Dev will always be remembered in cricket. People think he is one of the best all-rounders ever. Young players are still inspired by his amazing skills and ability to lead. He is a fast-medium bowler known for how fast he throws the ball and a middle-order hitter who hits hard.
BCCI shared a picture of Kapil with his international numbers on X and wished the best all-rounder for Team India a happy birthday.
Rajeev Shukla, Vice-President of the BCCI, also sent his best wishes to the “icon of the game and inspiration to millions.”
“Happy Birthday to the great cricket player Kapil Dev!” You’re a star in the game, and millions of people look up to you. What you did for Indian cricket will go down in history. Happy birthday! May you be healthy, happy, laugh, and love! Keep giving young people hope. This is @therealkapildev,” Shukla wrote on X.
It was written on X by the Indian Premier League team Punjab Kings, “The Haryana Hurricane #SherSquad, aao saare Kapil paji nu janamdin diyan mubarkaan dayiye.” We hope he has a great year ahead.
RCB also wished him “one of the greatest all-rounders” and wrote, “9031 international runs, 687 international wickets, first Indian Captain to win the World Cup.” Kapil Dev’s birthday is today. He is a star and one of the best all-rounders in the history of the game.
Kapil Dev led the Indian team to victory at Lords in 1983, where they won the World Cup. The all-rounder has been in 356 international games, made 9031 runs, and taken 687 wickets.
Kapil became a role model for young bowlers because of how nice he was off the field as well as how good he was at the game. His leadership of India’s World Cup-winning team in 1983 was a turning point in Indian cricket. It inspired a whole generation of players and cemented his place in cricket history.
