Srinivas Bhogle

Other Indian players in the top 50 are Yuvraj Singh (19), Anil Kumble (26), Sachin Tendulkar (41), Sourav Ganguly (43), Munaf Patel (45) and Zaheer Khan (48).

"Sehwag" enters the Day 7 Chernoff gallery displacing "Dwayne Smith" who got only 1 wicket and couldn't get to bat against Zimbabwe.

Recall that a pure batsman has a round face, wide nose and smiles when he gets good runs, while a pure bowler has a tapered face with a tall nose and big ears when he is among the wickets.

Eyebrows tend to be longer and higher if you have taken more catches ("Tikolo" with 2 catches).

 

 

This list and the Chernoff faces have been prepared by my colleagues Debasish Ghosh and K Anil Kumar of Cranes Software International Limited using the SYSTAT software.
