#8 Nasser Hussain and Vladimir Putin

Both of them have had their fair share of controversies

Former England captain Nasser Hussain has quite an interesting look-a-like in the form of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Hussain captained the England Test and ODI side from 1999-2003 and while he enjoyed reasonable success, there were certain low points in his career which led to a change in leadership after the 2003 World Cup. He is currently a cricket commentator and his autobiography “Playing With Fire” won the “Best Autobiography” award at the 2005 British Sports Book Awards.

Putin has been the President of the Russian Federation since 2012. He is one of the most influential and powerful people in the world. In 2015, he was #1 on the Time's Most Influential People List. In 2013, 2014, and 2015, he was ranked first on the Forbes List of The World's Most Powerful People.
