Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) players talked about the Bollywood star and their co-owner Shah Rukh Khan on his 55th birthday. From SRK's first glimpse to his personality, the KKR cricketers mentioned it all in a short video shared by the franchise on Twitter.

KKR skipper Eoin Morgan called Shah Rukh the Tom Cruise of India and said he is more exciting than the Hollywood actor. "Everbody described him as the Tom Cruise of India. He is actually more exciting than Tom Crusie," he said in the video.

Dinesh Karthik recalled his trip to Bali when the Tuk-Tuk driver included a Bollywood star's name in the things he knew about India.

Apart from Morgan and Karthik, Andre Russell, Pat Cummins, Lockie Ferguson, and Kuldeep Yadav were also there in the video. Russell shared he started blushing after the first meeting with Shah Rukh Khan. "I'm a guy, a tough guy, but I was blushing," he said.

The Twitter account of KKR posted the video and wrote, "Special wishes from the boys for our main Knight without whom the KKR family is incomplete! Happy birthday, @iamsrk".

KKR jumped to number four in the points table from the last spot after winning their final league match against Rajasthan Royals. They will have to depend on the results of the upcoming two matches to see whether there's a spot for them in the playoffs or not.
