Former South African cricketer Andrew Hall celebrates his birthday on July 31, 2019. International Cricket Council (ICC) took to social media to send a happy birthday message to the bowler as he turned 44. But while posting the message on Twitter, ICC accidentally posted the picture of another South African player Charl Langeveldt. The mistake was pointed by many many fans including the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB). In their tweet ICC wrote, "Happy Birthday Andrew Hall - one of the finest bowling all-rounders! He took 143 wickets in 111 internationals for South Africa and scored over 1600 runs." The international body went on to delete the tweet when they realised that they posted an image of Charl Langeveldt instead of Andrew Hall in their tweet. After noticing the mistake made by ICC, Bangladesh Cricket Board wrote on Twitter, "That's our Bowling Coach Charl Langeveldt. Happy Birthday to Andrew Hall!" Andrew Hall had made his international debut for South Africa in January 1999. He played a total of 21 Tests and 88 ODIs.
