5 Cricketers who have acted on screen

5. Ajay Jadeja:

Once a prolific batsman and fielder in the late 90s, especially in One-Dayers, Ajay Jadeja has played meaty roles in several movies including Khel, Pal Pal Dil Ke Ssaat and others. He also participated in Jhalakh Dikhlaja (Session1) – a dance reality show in 2006. However, Jadeja is more popular as a cricket expert on news channels these days.

Glamour quotient might be present in both Cricket and acting, but these two action-packed careers are completely opposite to each other. Cricketers may find it easier to join silver screen because of their popularity but performing well on this side of the pitch is very-very difficult.
