Who said what: Cricketers wish Yuvraj Singh on his 36th birthday

Yuvraj Singh, the prince of Indian cricket, has turned 36 today. The man responsible for India lifting the inaugural World T20 in 2007 as well as the 2011 ODI World Cup, Yuvraj has always been a rare warrior who cricketers and fans admire.

After receiving the Man of the Tournament award at the 2011 World Cup for his all-round show - he hit 362 runs and collected 15 wickets - Yuvraj flew to the US to recover from a rare form of germ cell cancer.

A massive hitter of the white-ball, Yuvraj has been a delight for his classy strokes in limited-overs cricket.

He is also remembered for tonking six sixes in a single over against England at the 2007 T20 World Cup, when he sent Stuart Broad to all parts of the Kingsmead in Durban. In the semi-finals of that tournament, he blazed away to a 30-ball 70 to take India to the final.

This is how cricketers - past as well as present - wished Yuvraj on his 36th birthday:

Happy Birthday @YUVSTRONG12 . You have been an inspiration with your will-power and never say die attitude. May you remain blessed. pic.twitter.com/wYPnhB1do6
