5 world class football players who have played other sports

#3 Joe Hart - Cricket

Hart kept himself busy with cricket this summer

Hart is easily one of those goalkeepers who has given as a lot to remember. With Manchester City, he became one of their most important players ever since their 2011 Premier League victory. A tall and a quick goalkeeper, it was surprising indeed that he was not picked up for England's World Cup squad. He currently plays for Burnley FC.

However, if you grow up in England, you always have to know a sport other than football. Cricket is yet another sport given to us by the Brits, and Joe Hart surely proves that he plays it too. While England was facing Sweden in the World Cup quarter-finals, Hart, back in his home country, took to the cricket field, playing for his hometown Shrewsbury, in a professional domestic match scoring six runs and getting a catch off a shot.

Well, Hart proves to us all that he is a true Englishmen, given his choice of sports!
