hi friends.whether its the luck or plain talent,it made me start this discussion. yesterday was yuvi's b'day and he performed well with both bat and ball and i believe got the man of the match award. can you think of any other players who performed way too well on their B'day? i remember that one of tendulkar's desert storm innings in sharjah was on his Bday .i am not sure . do you know anyone else?

Yes. You are right. Yuvraj Singh shined both with the bat and the bowl. I think, his was a great performance during the second match against Sri Lanka. Though we cannot say that he won the match single-handedly, because there were other notable performances that of Virender Sehwag and the Captain Dhoni himself, Yuvi was the standout player and very very deservingly won the man of the match award. Apart from that as you said, about Sachin Tendulkar. I was also going to speak about the same. Sachin sparked in two matches in that championship. He hit two consecutive hundreds against Australia in that series. And one of them came on his birthday. I still remember him talk when he said that I want many more birthdays like this. Yuvraj too said that this was his best birthday.

no due...........no one in india apart from uv and tendulkar didn't performed a fabulous innings on their birth day.This is not the first in which uv was so aggressive. He is an aggressive player with huge stroke power.
