The Indian Premier League (IPL), which made its debut in 2008, has escalated cricketers’ status to more or less as celebrities. It earned them a reputation of not only being some of the highest-paid athletes, but the mingling with Bollywood superstars also helped.

Even at the twilight of his career, he has managed himself quite well.
The 35-year old possesses a muscular and tattooed left-arm, which when even kept casually displays the veins. Along with that, the right-handed batsman has the perfect hairstyle and beard style to go with. Some of Faf’s fielding efforts in the deep adds to his attractiveness.

As it is with most cricketers, the 36-year old has a charming smile along with a haircut that aggravates the attractiveness. The 36-year old comes from a cricketing family with Ed, Dominick, Gus, and Isobel everyone having played at the international level.
Dale Steyn:
Veteran South Africa Dale Steyn is comfortably the greatest fast bowler of this generation. Steyn has the capability to be venomous with the new ball as well as the old, blessed with the skill to generate reverse swing consistently. Furthermore, he has proved himself in home conditions as well as in sub-continent. Dale Steyn is South Africa’s highest wicket-taker in Tests with 439.
Like Du Plessis, the right-arm speedster has a plethora of tattoos on his left-arm. As a fast bowler, the 36-year old has the trademark aggression in himself and the throbbing veins oozes when he roars to celebrate a wicket. Steyn’s fiery eyes every time he steams in to bowl enhances his charm.

24-year old Holly Ferling has had a profusely short career so far, having played only 3 Tests, 22 ODIs, and 9 T20Is. She made her first international appearance in 2013. So far, Holly has fared well in ODIs, picking up 24 scalps in 22 fixtures.
Holly Ferling is one of the tallest women cricketers, due to which she apparently gets an advantage over batters. As long as her physical features go, her smile and straightened hairs make her look exceptionally charming.
Jos Buttler:
English wicketkeeper-batsman Jos Buttler has become one of the trendsetters for England’s fearless brand of cricket. One of the most impactful batsmen today, Buttler has the potential to change the state of the game, batting in the lower-middle order. He was significant in their transition from their 2015 World Cup debacle to making them champions in 2019.
Jos Buttler has one of the perfect features, having dimples, a modern hairstyle, and a booming voice. Additionally, his game-changing abilities and the counter-attacking skill makes him very likeable. It was also fitting to see him give back to Sheldon Cottrell in his own style in February 2019 after smashing him for a six.
Isobel Joyce:
Isobel Joyce is the twin sister of Cecelia Joyce, having made her international debut in 1999. From 1999 to 2018, she featured in 79 ODIs, 55 T20Is, and a single Test. The 36-year old all-rounder picked up 105 scalps and scored nearly 2000 runs over her international career.
Similar to her twin sister, Isobel Joyce has a delightful smile with straightened hairs to go by. The twin sisters also stepped down from international cricket together in November 2018.
Hardik Pandya:
Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya is one of the most exciting all-rounders today. Having made his international debut in 2016, Pandya began making immediate impact in all the aspects. The Baroda cricketer is one of the most vital cogs in the Mumbai Indians’ line-up, having been part of three victorious campaigns.
Though he is exceptionally injury-prone there is no arguing with how toned his physique looks and his brooding facial features. Thus far, the 26-year old has tried a wide array of hairstyles all of which look good. As far as his physique goes, his six-pack abs can make any girl go gaga over him.
Virat Kohli:
Indian captain Virat Kohli is perhaps not only one of the top-notch cricketers right now but also one of the most respected ones. As of today, the right-handed batsman is in the top ten rankings in all the formats and averages over 50 with the bat in all of them. Kohli is also one of them well within sights to take over Sachin Tendulkar in terms of run-scoring.
With his aggressive attitude, astuteness, respect for the game, and hunger for runs, the 31-year old has become a heartthrob and an inspiration to the millions. Reportedly, four English cricketers in Katherine Brunt, Sarah Taylor, Kate Cross, and Danielle Wyatt are also his fans. The trim-bearded look and the fiery glare every time Kohli walks out on the field is very typical of an athlete.
Ellyse Perry:
Ellyse Perry is the youngest Australian ever to play international cricket, having made her debut in 2007 at the age of 16. She is a genuine all-rounder, who has happily accepted the role of the pace-bowling spearhead for her side.
