“One of the most underrated cricketers and the man who led India to its greatest ever overseas Test series win. Happy Birthday, @ajinkyarahane88 . May God give you the strength to fight every challenge,” tweeted Sehwag.

Rahane’s teammate and another Test specialist, Cheteshwar Pujara, took to his official Twitter handle and wrote: “A very happy birthday, brother @ajinkyarahane88 Wishing you happiness and success in the coming year. Enjoy your day!”

Former India cricketer Suresh Raina wished a good year to Rahane. He tweeted: “Happiest Birthday to you @ajinkyarahane88 . Wishing you the best on your birthday and everything good in the year ahead. Have a good one brother. Loads of love!”
