Today we’re marking another lap around the sun and thousands on the field for Shadab Khan. It’s Shaddy’s birthday and the cricketer is being celebrated by his peers and fans alike — as he should.

October 4 is Shaddy Day and netizens are making sure everyone knows. They have filled Pakistani Twitter with the player’s photos, sketches, collages, edits and some have even photoshopped themselves in pictures next to him.

Captain Babar Azam and players Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Muhammad Nawaz and Sarfaraz Ahmed wished “Shaddy jani” a happy birthday.

What can’t the birthday boy do?

Who’d buy tickets for Shaddy’s concert?

Photoshop? What’s that?

What does king Shaddy do for a living? He wins hearts.

Happy Birthday Shadab!
