Indian cricket board president Sourav Ganguly celebrated his birthday in a grand manner in the streets of London. Apparently, in a video going viral on social media, he was dancing on the streets with his wife, Donna, and daughter Sana. Not just the trio, but several others with them were dancing. These people could possibly be close to the family.

In the video, the husband and wife were insisting their child to dance as well. The people in the video were dancing to the 2011 classic 'Subah hone na de'. The youngster was seen dancing and singing in the latter part of the video. Notably, Ganguly is the second former India to celebrate his birthday in the capital of England. MS Dhoni recently celebrated his 41st in the same city.

Talking about the Sourav-Sachin duo, they have put together some memorable partnerships while opening the batting in ODI cricket, and batting at other positions as well. Together, they have amassed 8227 runs in 176 games at an average of 47.55 and have remained not out three times.
No yesteryear batting pair have come close to breaking their record. The second-highest partnership among yesteryear cricketers was 5992 runs from former Sri Lanka cricketers, Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara. Only Rohit Sharma- Virat Kohli, and Sharma - Shikhar Dhawan can break the 8227 runs record. Sharma and Kohli have amassed 4906 runs while Dhawan and Sharma have got 5023 runs.
