Cartoon look-alikes in cricket

As a kid who grew up on the staple diet of cricket and cartoons, there were moments when I saw a cricketer, who reminded me of a certain cartoon character. From the subtle physical resemblances to the similar personality traits, there were many cricketers who looked straight out from a cartoon series. So relive your childhood and check out our list of best cartoon look-alikes in cricket.

Chris Gayle and Droopy Dog

There’s an uncanny resemblance between Chris Gayle and Droopy Dog. Both are cool and calm customers by nature, you’ll hardly ever find an expression on their faces. But, don’t go on their looks. They can outwit you before you even know, and are capable enough to overcome any given challenge.

Daniel Vettori and Dexter

Bespectacled. Masters of their trait. Ingenious. Do I have to say more?

Dave Whatmore and Monterey “Monty” Jack

One travels the world for adventure, and other travels for coaching purposes. Robust and doughty, Monty, from the Chip n Dale series has some strong similarities with Dave Whatmore. If the mustaches doesn’t convince you, then their nationalities will. Both of them come from Australia.

Ross Taylor and Scooby Doo

If one captains his nations cricket team, then the other solves ghost mysteries. The eyes, the smile or even the face-cut, there is a subtle semblance between Ross Taylor and Scooby Doo.

Lasith Malinga and Sideshow Bob

No descriptions here. Their hairdos say everything.

Russell and Robert Key

This makes the list for the physical similarities between Russell, the Wilderness Explorer from the movie Up, and the English and Kent batsman Robert Key. Both can do well to hit the gym and loose all that extra jelly-belly!

Shane Warne and Fred Flinstone

Well, this one is my personal favorite. Fun-loving, aggressive, slightly temperamental, there’s a lot common between Shane Warne and Fred Flinstone. The broad frame and the matching hairdo, Shane Warne is the Fred Flinstone of the modern age. To top it all, both are highly skilled gamblers and love to enjoy a game of poker with close mates.

I Hope you enjoyed the list. If you think any other cricketer looks like a cartoon character, feel free to mention it in the comments section.
