Sanath Jayasuriya, born on June 30, 1969, will be celebrating his 56th birthday today, in 2025. The ace batter with 13430 ODI career runs and 323 wickets in the format is undoubtedly one of the greatest ever to represent the Sri Lanka national cricket team or rather play cricket. Sanath Jayasuriya played the game on the international stage for over two decades and is a champion when it comes to opening the innings with the white-ball to hit. With over 20,000 runs in international cricket, Sanath Jayasuriya is the third all-time highest runscorer for Sri Lanka across all formats, just after Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene.
