<h4><strong>16. Stuart Broad, Stuart Carlisle, Stuart Binny, Stuart Clark,Stuart McGill and Stuart Williams:</strong></h4>
<figure id="attachment_27379" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-27379" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="max-width: 100%; margin: 0;"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/08/Stuart-Broad-Ashes-2015-Trent-Bridge.jpg"><amp-img class="wp-image-27379 size-full" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/08/Stuart-Broad-Ashes-2015-Trent-Bridge.jpg" alt="Ashes 2015" width="594" height="473" layout="responsive" style="max-width: 100%; margin: 0;"></amp-img></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-27379" class="wp-caption-text">(Photo by Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>
<p>Each of the Stuarts hailing from every corner of the world, has its own charisma. Stuart Broad, the recent Ashes hero has been leading the pace pack of England in the absence of James Anderson. Also, the T20 captain of the England team has won many hearts with his boyish look and bowling performance.</p>
<p>Stuart Carlisle a self believer was the utility batsman for the Zimbabwe team. Carlisle has also captained the Zimbabwean side. A stunning fielder, Carlisle could bat anywhere from 1-7 number. Stuart Binny the Indian all-rounder is yet to make a prominent place in the Indian squad. Binny has captained Karnataka and has established himself as a hard-hitter in the Indian Premier League.</p>
<p>Stuart Clark the Australian fast bowler as said by the selectors was a “Glenn McGrath mould.” A perfect opening bowler, at the age of 30 he had a dream start at the age of 30 bagging the ‘Man of the Series’ award with 20 wickets when he replaced McGrath. Stuart Williams a lovely stroke player was expected to mature at a steady rate to play great innings for his country. Unfortunately the Caribbean batsman had just one ton and 4 fifties in his career.</p>

<p>Brothers, friends, partners and rivals, cricketers share several relationships with their teammates as well as the opponents beyond boundaries. But many cricketers share the same name, with their teammates, their opponents across the teams and with legends from some other era.</p>
<p>These players usually play for different teams but their first or last name matches. Their specialism and cricketing role might differ but their name unites them in the game. Here is a list of Brothers by name &#8211; 16 Cricketers sharing the same name:<strong><br>
</strong></p>
<h4><strong>1. Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Johnson, Mitchell Marsh, Mitchell McClenaghan and Mitchell Santner:</strong></h4>
<figure id="attachment_24926" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-24926" style="width: 594px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/07/Mitchell-Johnson-Australia-Ashes-2015-Lords.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-24926 size-full" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/07/Mitchell-Johnson-Australia-Ashes-2015-Lords.jpg" alt="Australia" width="594" height="441" sizes="(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-24926" class="wp-caption-text">Mitchell Johnson. (Photo by Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>
<p>After the era of Michaels, Allans and Davids, Mitch is the new stock of the cricket community. All of these five Mitchells are not just another players but the stars of the cricketing world. &#8220;Is Mitchell the most favourite first name for babies in Australia?&#8221; &#8211; A viewer asked Shane Warne during India&#8217;s tour of Australia, with the three Mitchells (Johnson, Starc and Marsh) in the Aussies side.</p>
<p>Mitchell Johnson is the Sylvestor Satallone of fast bowling, whereas Starc is the Bruce Lee with technique, skills but equally deadly outcome, both are but a nightmare for the bowlers. The newest addition in the Kangaroos, Marsh is the Brad Pitt of the side. Working his way both with the bat and the ball. However, the eye-stealing look is what the trio have in common.</p>
<p>The other two, Mitchell McClenaghan and Santner are the members of the Black Caps, McClenaghan is the experienced face of the team, a prominent name in the bowling department. Satner, on the other hand is a rather new member and an all-rounder who was welcomed with high expectations.</p>
<h4><strong>2. Andrew Flintoff, Andrew Strauss and Andrew Symonds:</strong></h4>
<figure id="attachment_23617" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-23617" style="width: 594px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/07/Andrew-Flintoff.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-23617 size-full" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/07/Andrew-Flintoff.jpg" alt="Andrew Flintoff" width="594" height="403" sizes="(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-23617" class="wp-caption-text">Andrew Flintoff.

<p>The arch-rivals of cricket Australia and England have the name Andrew in common. Andrew Strauss the captain of England team was one the most successful captains, with modest, ethical and decenct being the words that describes him the best. He is in contrast with the other two cricketers sharing his first name.</p>
<p>Flintoff, an all-rounder, favourite and also the skipper of the English team got into troubles for his behavior outside the cricket grounds. His figures though tell the tale of his performance on field, making him one of the best all-rounders of the England team.</p>
<p>Andrew Symonds, a product of the Australian trait of brashness like others, on field tiffs were a common site when he was on the field. Symonds was a hitter he could treat any ball to the boundary. He was on the same page with his name sharer Flintoff when it comes to getting into controversies. The trio was a show to watch on the field.</p>
<h4><strong>3. Michael Vaughan, Michael Hussey, Michael Bevan, </strong><strong>Michael Clarke and Michael Holding</strong><strong>:</strong></h4>
<figure id="attachment_16285" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-16285" style="width: 594px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/04/Mike-Hussey.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-16285 size-full" src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/2015/04/Mike-Hussey.jpg" alt="Michael Hussey" width="594" height="397" sizes="(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-16285" class="wp-caption-text">Michael Hussey.

<p>The greats of the Cricket world, Michael&#8217;s have ruled the game for quite a long time from now. Michael Vaughan, Hussey, Clarke, Bevan and Holding have their career punctuated by fine achievements.</p>
<p>Michael Vaughan and Clarke belong to the arch-rivals England and Australia respectively both have played the skipper’s part well but with different styles. Vaughan was the first English captain to win the Ashes since 1986-87, his captaincy was calm, ruthlessly effective and immovable whereas Clarke was an aggressive captain with a World Cup win and Ashes whitewashed series under his captaincy.</p>
<p>Hussey on the other hand, is one of the classy batsmen, calm and focused nothing could distract &#8220;Mr Cricket&#8221; as he is often called, when he took and takes the crease. Bevan is regularly dubbed as, the world&#8217;s best limited overs finisher. He had the knack of winning nail biting games with his nerveless batting.</p>
<p>Michael Holding one of the fastest bowlers ever to play in Test cricket. He was nicknamed &#8220;Whispering Death&#8221; for his smooth bowling actions. Holding was a mesmerizing bowler.</p>

<p>Each of the Stuarts hailing from every corner of the world, has its own charisma. Stuart Broad, the recent Ashes hero has been leading the pace pack of England in the absence of James Anderson. Also, the T20 captain of the England team has won many hearts with his boyish look and bowling performance.</p>
<p>Stuart Carlisle a self believer was the utility batsman for the Zimbabwe team. Carlisle has also captained the Zimbabwean side. A stunning fielder, Carlisle could bat anywhere from 1-7 number. Stuart Binny the Indian all-rounder is yet to make a prominent place in the Indian squad. Binny has captained Karnataka and has established himself as a hard-hitter in the Indian Premier League.</p>
<p>Stuart Clark the Australian fast bowler as said by the selectors was a &#8220;Glenn McGrath mould.&#8221; A perfect opening bowler, at the age of 30 he had a dream start at the age of 30 bagging the &#8216;Man of the Series&#8217; award with 20 wickets when he replaced McGrath. Stuart Williams a lovely stroke player was expected to mature at a steady rate to play great innings for his country. Unfortunately the Caribbean batsman had just one ton and 4 fifties in his career.</p>

These players usually play for different teams but their first or last name matches.
