December 6 is a special day in the cricket world, as it marks the birthdays of several cricket legends. Among them is Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who is one of the most celebrated cricketers of his generation. On this occasion, we bring you a special playing XI of cricketers who share the same birthdate.

This playing XI features both Indian and international cricket stars, starting with the opening partnership of Indian batter Karun Nair and Pakistan’s Nasir Jamshed. Though both players didn’t get many chances in international cricket, they have had significant impacts in domestic cricket.

At number three, Indian middle-order batsman Shreyas Iyer, who is celebrating his 30th birthday today, will lead the team. Iyer, known for his consistency in limited-overs cricket, has been appointed captain of this special team.

Moving to the middle order, Ireland’s Harry Tector will take the number four spot, while New Zealand’s Glenn Phillips will bat at number five. Phillips, who is also a wicketkeeper, can serve as an all-rounder as well.

In the all-rounder category, England’s Andrew Flintoff, one of the best all-rounders in cricket history, will take the number six position. Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, known for his excellent bowling and batting skills, will follow at number seven. Zimbabwe’s former all-rounder, Sean Ervine, completes the all-rounder lineup at number eight.

The bowling department is led by India’s top fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah. He is joined by fellow fast bowlers, Anshul Kamboj and former Indian cricketer RP Singh, who will form a lethal attack.
