Pressure Map: Kenya vs Canada
| ||||
The Sri Lankans have made their appearance in the MVP table after comprehensively defeating Bermuda: With very impressive figures of 7-1-23-4, Maharoof enters the top five. Jayawardene 85 in just 90 balls brings him to the 8th place, and Sangakkara, who could be one of the stars of this WC, has started strongly.
Ireland's Jeremy Bray too has made a very impressive first appearance with a fine century. But Ricky Ponting still retains his top place after day 3.

The Chernoff faces of the top nine players are shown below. Recall that the highest ranked player has the longest hair; the batsmen have round faces, eyes wide apart, smaller ears and a wider nose. The more they score, the more they seem to smile (see "Ponting", "Bray" or "Jayawardene"). The bowlers are quite the opposite: tapered faces, eyes close to each other, bigger ears and a longer nose (see "Maharoof", "Rao Iftikhar Anjum"), and pure bowlers have more grumpy faces than bowling all-rounders.
