While Dhawan celebrated his birthday on Monday, December 5, Iyer celebrated his special day on December 6, Tuesday.
Ahead of the second ODI against Bangladesh, the Indian players and support staff had some light moments as they celebrated Dhawan and Iyer's birthdays. Together, they cut a scrumptious-looking chocolate cake in presence of the entire staff and players.
Where there is Dhawan, something special is bound to happen, as he was seen eating the cake along with Iyer in a unique manner. The pictures of the celebration were shared by BCCI on their Twitter handle and they went viral in no time.

Infact, Iyer also shared his birthday with fellow Indian teammates Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja both of whom were also born on December 6, however, they are recuperating from their respective injury issues and thus missed out on the celebration.
Moreover, not just Iyer, Jadeja and Bumrah, but former Indian cricketers like RP Singh, Karun Nair, and Royal Challengers Bangalore's (RCB) Suyash Prabhudesai all celebrated their birthday on December 6.
