India wicketkeeper Naman Ojha on Friday (September 7) became the talk of the town for his goof-up tweet. Ojha was brutally trolled by the Twitterati after he sent birthday wishes to former India captain Sourav Ganguly on a wrong date.
Originally, Ganguly’s birthday falls on July 8 and it is celebrated with immense passion by the Indian cricket fans on social media sites. For some reasons, however, Ojha mistook the birth date and it became a trending topic on Twitter.
“Happy Birthday dada @SGanguly99” Naman Ojha’s tweet read.
Happy Birthday dada @SGanguly99

Minutes after Ojha posted the tweet, his followers reminded him of Ganguly’s actual birth date and also poked fun at him for having a slow internet connection. In fact, one of the fans asked Ojha whether he got drunk before sending the birthday wishes.
Birthday wish aaj kyo ??
