The spell of ever evolving fashion has charmed each community
by its aura – be it the common mass, movie stars, artists or sports players.
Talking about the cricket stars and fashion makes one visualise
our heroes – from yester-years to the present day. Needless to say that the cricket
heartthrobs have always fascinated their aficionados by their game but we see
the trend changing these days.

The role models of gen-next are redefining the appeal
factor. Apart from learning the latest game techniques, enhancing the prowess
and embracing a healthy lifestyle, the players have added a new feather in
their Cricket Cap… and that is the “Style Statement”!
There was a time when glamour and cricket were considered to
be two different accounts but now the genres seem to be so synonymous that it
creates a whole lot of hoopla around in the social media.
The retro players concentrated predominantly over the game, looks
being a subtle reflection of their personal style. However, the current day
players find it significant to catch up with the latest fashion trends; be it hair,
apparel, accessories, footwear or technology - the cricketers have donned it
all. The focus is tremendously on good looks and great body!

Style is all about the way someone talks, walks, eats,
speaks, writes, behaves, etc. Being an extremely essential element today, style
has marked its foray from the conventional era to the modern day where our idols
have transcended their line of business. With a much more polished personality
and a refined lingo, they now host events, anchor shows, endorse brands, and promote
print media; they act, sing and dance in TV commercials, and sometimes even in movies.
With the fever of Cricket World Cup catching upon in every
four years, our doting champions make us crazy by their obsequious efforts to
showcase their style. Undoubtedly, the gen-next players have made an
effervescent impact on the paparazzi and the cricket buffs - they are absolutely
trendy, geeky and more fashion-conscious than before… and they commit to continue staying in style!
