Former India cricketer, Sachin Tendulkar has a sarcastic wish for his former teammate, Ishant Sharma, who is celebrating his 30th birthday, on Sunday (September 30th).

Meanwhile, Ishant Sharma is currently in England leading the Indian pace battery against England at Southampton. So far, he had an outstanding series with the highest number of wickets among Indian bowlers.

Now, India will look to win the ongoing Southampton Test to level the five-match Test series. England is 233 runs ahead with two wickets still in hand. Jos Buttler continued his excellent form along with Sam Curran, who has been the find of this season. Mohammed Shami proved to be the golden boy for Virat Kohli & Co making the ball talk. He removed Adil Rashid in the last over, as the umpires called it a day.

However, the bowlers have put in a brilliant show to restrict a star-studded English batting. So far, Ishant Sharma has bagged four wickets in this Test match and has been critical with the new ball. He along with his fellow seamer will look put curtain on England innings as early as possible.
