    If the history of cricket has proven anything, it is that not-so-athletic players can also dominate the field for years. Names like Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag and Inzamam-ul-Haq don’t come to mind when you are talking about an athlete with an imposing physique.

    Therefore, it becomes that much more praise-worthy when you look at the names mentioned below, who went out of their way to achieve physical and aesthetic excellence while meeting the gruelling requirements of as a cricketer: 

    Here are five cricketers who workout like beasts and have the most ripped physique in the game:  
    (disclaimer: The list includes current and former cricketers)
    1. Andrew Symonds © Cricket Australia
    Andrew Symonds may have struggled with disciplinary issues on the field but looking at his physique, agility and sheer power with which the man used to play the game, it was evident that he had a very strict workout regimen and stuck to it no matter what came his way.

    If you have seen Chris Gayle stand tall with a massive bat in his hand, facing a bowler from any corner of the world, you could bet that he was going to smash the poor man for a long six. 

    While most of it was raw strength, Gayle has spoken about how much he loves to put in the extra effort, watch what he’s eating and simply take care of his body. Add his limitless swag to having the imposing physique and you have yourself what they call ‘Universe Boss’.

    The South African skipper isn’t one to lose his cool too easily but if you take a look at him without his t-shirt on, you would probably back away from even thinking about getting in a fight with him. 

    On the field, du Plessis has one of the quickest reflexes while chasing or catching the ball and is willing to put his body on the line for a wicket. Don’t believe us? Check this out: 

    4. Shane Watson © Cricket Australia
    38-year-old Australian all-rounder Shane Watson is six-feet tall and weighs 93 kilos and even though he retired from international cricket in 2016, he has managed to maintain his physique resembling nothing short of a model. 

    The only difference is that back in his prime days, he had more chiselled and well-defined muscles, but now the man looks like a lumberjack. 
    5. Virat Kohli © Instagram/Virat Kohli
    Ah, the king of cricket and the king of transformations, the captain of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli. 

    His story towards fitness did have a lot to do with the ability to perform better. He changed his diet, started lifting heavier and once he could see the results, he was hooked for life. Now, Kohli not only trains for his own self but also extends challenges to his fans to get healthier.
    6. Hardik Pandya © Instagram/Hardik Pandya
    If showboating had a face, it would be Hardik Pandya’s. From giant tattoos on his arms and shoulders to wearing the most expensive jewellery he can get his hands on, the father-to-be doesn’t discount any excuse to carry the persona of a superstar. 

    Recovering from a lower back surgery, Pandya not only made his body stronger but even bulked up significantly and got rid of his previously skinny-looking frame. 
    7. Chris Tremlett © Instagram/Chris Tremlett
    We are in the big league now, the guys who moved away from cricket and took up bodybuilding as a way of life. And our first candidate is England’s Chris Tremlett. 

    Not that the pacer wasn’t ginormous already during his days as a cricketer. He’s 6 feet 7 inches tall and had the ability to generate extra bounce because of his height and force but after bidding adieu to the game, Tremlett found his true calling in pumping iron. Back in June 2017 when the fast bowler shared his transformation journey, the world lost their mind.
    8. David Lawrence © CricTracker
    Yet another English pacer who had to move away from cricket because of an injury (broken knee cap), David Lawrence took it in his stride, brought in an exceptional amount of dietary and exercise-related discipline in his life and became an avid member of the UK’s bodybuilding circuit. 

    So much so, that he was awarded the National Amateur Body Building Association’s West of England champion for the over-40s for three consecutive years. 
    Bonus: S. Sreesanth  © Instagram/Sreesanth
    Yes, we all know what went down with former Indian pacer S Sreesanth on the field a few years ago. Ever since, the man has done jail-time, pleaded to the court for his return and almost won a reality show also, there’s something else that Sreesanth did. He got absolutely jacked. 

    If you look at his photos from winning the ICC World Cup 2011 and now, you won’t be able to understand how he was able to make this transformation.

    A law degree is supposedly one of the most respected professions across the globe in terms of the respect it carries, sometimes the fear it instils and even the kind of money it can allow a lawyer to make. Also not to forget the ability to use logical reasoning and derivative arguments to get one through any discussion or debate in life as well, is an added bonus of a lawyer’s talent. Faiz Siddiqui, a 41-year-old law graduate from the prestigious Oxford University also probably had some tall hopes when he got his degree. Except, what he eventually did will even make Marshall Erikson think twice before shouting ‘lawyered’ to anyone around him. The 41-year-old lawyer who is currently living in London and has been jobless, has sued his Dubai-based parents for not providing him financial aids for life.

    Uptil now, Faiz’s parents had left him a gorgeous apartment near Hyde Park which is around a whopping £1 million, and have been supporting him financially as well. Post a family feud, the parents apparently pulled the plug on the money flow and that obviously didn’t go down with this lawyer lad, who decided to make the best use of his degree and sued the two people who actually paid for it in the first place. In his defence, Faiz has claimed that he is a vulnerable grown-up child who deserves financial aid and not providing that is a violation of human rights for him. The parents had been providing him with an allowance of 400 pounds per week , which they now want to call off for their own reasons. Faiz was employed till 2011 and in 2018, he had even filed a lawsuit against his own University for ‘bad teaching’ that cost him his legal career.

    According to a Daily Mail report, Faiz had claimed 'boring' tuition and staff being on extended leaves to be a reason why he only received a 2:1 instead of the first-class degree he had intended to receive. I can only pretend to understand what Mr. Siddiqui  is enduring and why, but well, I guess that is what we call ‘first world problems’.  Here we are, fighting with our parents to get the AC serviced before Summers arrive, and then there are people who sue their parents with perhaps no fear of flying chappals.

    Rajkummar Rao has been dishing out some spectacular style goals for quite some time now, thanks to the outfits and ensembles that he has shown up in while promoting his films.

    One can safely say that he certainly is one of the best-dressed actors in India, with an impeccable understanding of fashion and style.

    Recently, at the premiere of his film Roohi, he gave us yet another example of why people are in awe of his sartorial sense. His outfit was a masterclass on dressing up in Indian ethnic wear, with a bit of panache and modernity.

    Seen here in a dope looking outfit that is primarily black and grey, Rajkummar looks rather swell. Styled by Anisha Jain, Rajkummar certainly managed to turn heads as he attended the premiere in an outfit, that would be fit for a modern-day prince.

    Rajkummar was seen wearing a rather simple but elegant looking short kurta with a floral print, a dapper-looking, contemporarily styled jacket, and a pair of black trousers.

    The printed short kurta is actually made out of silk. The kurta is a sublime piece, put together by the designer duo Rohit Gandhi & Rahul Khanna for their label Rohit Gandhi + Rahul Khanna. The kurta’s white mosaic print on grey is just sublime to look at. The silhouette too, looks very ethnic, with a very subtle contemporary touch.

    For those interested, the kurta, also called the Printed Silk Short Kurta is listed on the label’s website for Rs 12,500.

    The jacket, on the other hand, looks straight off the runway from a European fashion week. It is called the Rock Jacket. The broad collars and the longer arms give the jacket a very elegant and European aesthetic. The pockets, panels and zippers, on the contrary, give it a very technical appeal.

    The jacket is again a piece from Rohit Gandhi + Rahul Khanna and retails for Rs 34,500.

    We also like the black slip ons he’s wearing. The dual-tone finish of the shoes makes it an interesting piece, and an obvious improvement over regular kolhapuris and slippers.

    All in all, this is actually quite a dapper outfit, and something to seriously consider if you’re looking for an outfit idea for an upcoming wedding or something. Kudos, Rajkummar, a job well done indeed.
