10 batsmen to have scored a century on their birthday

2) Vinod Kambli (India)

When: January 18, 1993 Where: Jaipur Opposition: England

Next on the list is Sachin Tendulkar's childhood buddy, Vinod Kambli.

The graceful southpaw scored 100 runs off 149 balls in the second ODI of the series against England. In a rain curtailed encounter, India pedaled their way to 223 off the maximum 48 overs that was allotted per side. England chased the modest total in the last ball of the match.

Even though Kambli ended up in the losing side, a man of the match performance on his birthday is something that he would treasure all his life.
