Steve Smith celebrates his 31st birthday on Tuesday (June 02).
When one talks about a cricketer, the first thing that comes to mind is the scores and records he or she may have created. However, when it comes to Steve Smith, things change.
The former Australian skipper has the records and scores under his name, but the man also has led an exciting life as a cricketer.
The Rajasthan Royals' (RR) captain had a glorious run at the international level. He started his career as a leg-spinner only to hone his batting skills and be reckoned as Australia's Mr. Dependable across all formats in current times.
Regarded as one of the top batsmen of the present era, Smith is part of the coveted Fab Four; comprising Virat Kohli, Kane Williamson, and Joe Root. Apart from his batting heroics, the right-hander is also known to be a gun fielder.
While all this makes him the powerhouse of the gentleman's game, the ball-tampering scandal has surely put a black spot in his glorious career.
Now celebrating his 31st birthday on Tuesday (June 02), fans took to Twitter to wish the man, as they recall the various memories of the batsman.
1. 'Happy Birthday World No. 1 Test Batsman'
2. 'Wishing happy birthday to one of the greatest cricketers of all time'
3. 'From a Leg-break spinner to a No.1 test batsman in the world'
