MVP Day 11: Still Graeme Smith
Srinivas Bhogle
March 24, 2007 16:55 IST

While Graeme Smith stays on top of Rediff's MVP list on Day 11, things might change dramatically after the Australia-South Africa encounter on Day 12.

With his 48 in 46 balls against Sri Lanka, Sehwag will probably end up being India's MVP in an utterly disappointing 2007 World Cup for him or his team.

*Run outs are counted as 1 for a direct hit, and 0.5 if the fielder is an equal participant in a run out dismissal.

Today's Chernoff gallery of the top nine players is shown below:

With six of the top nine having rounded, smiling faces, and wide noses, batsmen and batting allrounders have dominated the World Cup so far; this is no surprise when you look at the number of 300+ totals in the first round.

To see the faces of the nine highest scoring batsmen click here.

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
