10 Cool dude cricketers and their tattoos: Tattoos the painful body art form which inserts an indelible ink into the skin and leaves a permanent design on the skin was something associated with the tribes early on. But today Tattoos are the new coolness symbol. We had seen quite a few inked footballers and till the 20th century our game of cricket being the ‘Gentleman’s game’ had nobody playing international cricket with a tattoo in their skin.

As the trends change quite quickly and the new, ulta-modern generation of young men entering the cricket field. They have redefined many things, and today having a particular appearance does not define anything but your choice and having something inscribed on your body today is completely all right.
