Cricketers make a message on the field with every wicket and super-six. They’re making waves in the grooming and fashion worlds, just like they are on national television. When it comes to being fitness idols for the nation’s kids, Indian cricketers are no slouch. With the IPL 2020 streaming, we’ve added a few foreign names to our roster as well.
Faf du Plessis
How can one operate with such a large brow? Take a page from the 34-year-old South African captain’s book. A great illustration of how to deal with the annoyance of having a high hairline. Based on the undercut, Du Plessis had a goatee and a mild side fade without a detached quiff.
K.L. Rahul
K.L. Rahul is a complete all-rounder for Kings XI Punjab, as a sneakerhead, wicketkeeper, outstanding batter, and total style icon. However, when it comes to grooming, he loves to keep things simple. An undercut was worn with a fading chin-pointed beard. It’s also fascinating to notice how the curve of his beard defines his face. There is undoubtedly a trick to be learned there.
Virat Kohli
For Indians, a single day goes by without seeing our country’s captain’s face – on a billboard, in a magazine, or on almost any international sports channel. Virat’s style has actually improved over the years, with a cleaner cut and better-faded fade. It’s the fading synchronization between his beard and temple that makes it a style statement if you pay attention.
Shikhar Dhawan
Gabbar, the Indian cricketer, is a grooming legend. He keeps his hair incredibly short, with a traditional buzz and stubble that is also his defining style. Dhawan likes to keep things simple so he can concentrate on his game. If you’re curious about how he prepared for the IPL, we spoke with him briefly.
Lockie Ferguson
There’s a catch, though. Ferguson stands out in a world of undercuts and beards. How often do you encounter someone with a mustache inspired by Salvador Dali? Close investigation reveals that he’s still trimming his beard using a Number 1 beard trimmer. However, we like to keep it clean since it keeps the attention on the mustache. Definitely a highlight of the IPL 2020.
