Cricket is one of the most watched sports in the world. In Asian countries such as India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan, it has earned a lot of fans in the last three decades. Its popularity among children and teenagers is also unprecedented as they follow this sport with sheer passion.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Interestingly enough, along with cricket, a large majority of kids and teenagers follow cartoon shows as well. Sometimes, kids also compare their favourite cartoon characters with cricketers they are fond of. Keeping that in mind, let’s compare some illustrious cricketers and famous characters who share similarities.

Here are some cricketers who resemble famous cartoon characters

Kieron Pollard was known for his superb all-round excellence in international cricket. The star player served the West Indies team for 15 years and during his stint, he racked up 1569 runs and 42 wickets in 101 T20 Internationals (T20Is), at a strike rate of 135.14. With these numbers, he is the fourth-leading run-getter for the Windies side in cricket’s shortest format.

Pollard was known for his aggressive batting attitude in white-ball cricket. In the Indian Premier League (IPL), he played for Mumbai Indians (MI) from 2010 to 2022 and during these 12 years, he won a lot of games for the franchise with his fierce batting style. Along with his formidable batting attitude, Pollard is also known for his hot-tempered behaviour.&nbsp;

Back in the 2014 IPL edition, he had an infamous fight with Australian pacer, Mitchell Starc, who was playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) back then. In a heated argument, Pollard was about to throw his bat at Starc. Noting the Trinidad-born cricketer’s anger, one can compare him with Gian, one of the pivotal characters of the famous cartoon show ‘Doraemon’. Like Pollard, Gian is also known for dominating people around him.&nbsp;

Yuzvendra Chahal is known for coming heavily on batters with his leg-break bowling excellence. In his seven-year international career, the star<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-appeal/indias-five-fabulous-batting-triumphs-over-pakistan-in-odi-world-cups-2650/" title=" India " target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong> India </strong></a>player has picked up more than 200 wickets in 152 matches. He is a reputable name in the cash-rich IPL as well.

The 33-year-old ended up as the leading wicket-taker in the 2022 league edition, with 27 scalps in 17 matches at an economy of 7.75. Chahal is also known for his lively behaviour. One can see the spin wizard having funny moments with his teammates and even sometimes with umpires as well.&nbsp;

Noting Chahal’s vivaciousness, kids can draw a similarity between the India stalwart and Jerry, a cartoon character from the Tom and Jerry cartoon show. The famous cartoon character is known for being friends of friends and for his mischievous attitude.

(Photo Source: Twitter/@Gwen_Shepherd1 &amp; Matthew Lewis-ICC/ICC via Getty Images)</figcaption>

Mitchell Marsh is a vital part of the Australian cricket team due to his superb all-round talent. Riding on his superb skills, the Aussie side has won a lot of games in white-ball cricket. In Australia’s maiden T20 <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cwc-cricket-world-cup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>World Cup</strong></a> win in 2021, Marsh played an important role with his bat, scoring 185 runs in five innings of six matches at a strike rate of 146.82.

Marsh’s muscular physique makes him one of the best power-hitters in current times. Noting his aggressive batting style, Pat Cummins has tasked Marsh to open with David Warner in One-Day Internationals (ODIs). In Australia’s ODI series win in India in March 2023, Marsh showcased his batting mettle, ending up as the leading run-getter in the series with 194 runs in three games at a strike rate of 131.08.

Marsh’s might make him comparable to a famous animated character Johnny Bravo. Like the 31-year-old Aussie all-rounder, Bravo is also brawny and full of confidence. The American animated series was aired from July 14, 1997, to August 27, 2004, and the famous American voice actor, Jeff Bennett, voiced the character of Bravo.

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1697788390438_Shubman-Gill-and-Ben-10.jpeg" alt="Shubman Gill and Ben 10." loading="lazy"><figcaption>Shubman Gill and Ben 10. (Photo Source: Twitter, PUNIT PARANJPE/AFP via Getty Images)</figcaption>

Shubman Gill has emerged as one of the greatest match-winners for India in recent times. As an opener, he has justified his role in the Indian team with his extraordinary batting performances. The 24-year-old scripted history in January 2023, notching up a double-century against New Zealand in an ODI contest in Hyderabad.

With his sensational knock against the Kiwis, the youngster became the eighth batter in Men’s ODI cricket to hit a double hundred. The talented opener also became the fastest Indian batter to score 1000 ODI runs in 2022. He achieved this incredible batting milestone in just 19 innings.

Gill’s batting skills have helped him earn a lot of supporters in which kids and teenagers are in a great number. The young India stalwart is similar to the cartoon character Ben 10. On one side, Gill banks on his superb batting potential to do wonders while Ben 10 brings cheers to the faces of his viewers with his superpower abilities.&nbsp;

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1697789203241_Julie-and-Jemimah-Rodrigues.jpeg" alt="Julie and Jemimah Rodrigues" loading="lazy"><figcaption>Julie and Jemimah Rodrigues. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Jemimah Rodrigues is one of the key players of the India Women’s team. The 23-year-old has appeared in more than 100 international matches in which she has scored 2383 runs. In the Women’s T20 World Cup 2023, the middle-order batter notched up an unbeaten half-century against Pakistan Women and guided her side to a seven-wicket win.&nbsp;Jemimah is not only famous for her cricketing skills but also for her bubbly personality.

The young player also creates witty content and posts them on social media to entertain her supporters. One can find a lot of reels on her Instagram account in which she can be seen dancing and acting with famous internet personalities. Jemimah Rodrigues’s playing style resembles the animated character, Julie Power, a superpower in Marvel comics. Like Rodrigues, Julie also has the knack of stepping up and rescuing the world during a crisis.

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1697794481365_Chingum-and-Hardik-Pandya.jpeg" alt="Chingum-and-Hardik-Pandya" loading="lazy"><figcaption>Chingum-and-Hardik-Pandya. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Hardik Pandya has established himself as one of the prime players in Team India. With his all-round excellence, the star player has won a lot of matches in white-ball cricket for the Indian team. Currently, he is the vice-captain of Team India in the limited-over formats of the sport.

In the future, he might be seen leading the team in ODIs and T20Is. Pandya has showcased his efficiency with bat and ball several times. In the 2022 T20 World Cup, when India were four down at a score of 31 against Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), Pandya assisted the Player of the Match Virat Kohli to rescue the side and win the game.

Pandya’s effectiveness reminds kids of Inspector Chingum, a famous character from an Indian 3D animated television series Inspector Chingum. The renowned cartoon character is also a perfectionist like Pandya who does his duty efficiently. The inspector aims to make his city- Shantiwood, a ‘zero crime city’.

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1697794091713_Imran-Tahir-and-Jackie-Chan.jpeg" alt="Imran-Tahir-and-Jackie-Chan" loading="lazy"><figcaption>Imran-Tahir-and-Jackie-Chan. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Imran Tahir was one of the greatest spin bowlers to play for South Africa ever. The Lahore-born player served South Africa for eight years from 2011 to 2019. The spin wizard played 20 Tests in his international career and grabbed 57 wickets in 37 innings. In ODIs, he bagged 173 wickets in 104 innings of 107 matches.

In the 2019 IPL edition, Tahir became the Purple Cap winner, clinching 26 wickets in 17 matches for Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The South Africa stalwart’s bowling efforts played an enormous role in making CSK the title winner for the third time in the illustrious T20 league. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Tahir used to exude energy on the field while serving South Africa and CSK on the field. After picking up wickets, the veteran was known for celebrating in his trademark sprint style. Noting Tahir’s vigour, fans who watch cricket and animated shows can compare him to the animated character Jackie Chan. Like Tahir, Jackie is also energetic and possesses the potential to cause trouble to his rivals.

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1697795862550_Bheema-and-Rohit-Sharma.jpeg" alt="Bheema and Rohit Sharma" loading="lazy"><figcaption>Bheema and Rohit Sharma. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Team India's captain Rohit Sharma is one of the most dangerous batters in international cricket. In ODIs, he is the only batter to score three double-hundreds. Serving India since 2007 in one-day cricket, the 36-year-old has amassed 10329 runs with 31 tons and 53 fifties in 246 innings of 254 matches.

With these numbers, he is the sixth-most successful batter for India in ODIs. Since February 2022, Rohit has been captaining the Indian team in all forms of the sport. The veteran is the joint-most successful skipper with MS Dhoni in the IPL, winning five trophies for Mumbai Indians (MI).&nbsp;

Noting his record in IPL, Indian fans are expecting Rohit to win the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cwc-cricket-world-cup/" title=" World Cup 2023 " target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>World Cup 2023 </strong></a>for India. Rohit’s explosive batting skills make him one of the best stroke players in international cricket. The star player’s hard-hitting ability may remind cricket lovers of Bheem, an animated character in the 2013 animated movie Mahabharat. Bheem was one of the Pandavas in Mahabharat film who defeated rivals with his might and muscular power. In the animated film, Sunny Deol voiced Bheem’s character. &nbsp;

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1697788985114_Virat-Kohli-and-Chotta-Bheem.jpeg" alt="Virat Kohli and Chotta Bheem." loading="lazy"><figcaption>Virat Kohli and Chotta Bheem. (Photo Source: Twitter/@paa_they &amp; Alex Davidson-ICC/ICC via Getty Images)</figcaption>

Virat Kohli is counted among the best batters of current times in international cricket. In his 15-year international career, Kohli has registered a lot of batting feats on his name. Currently, he is the fifth-leading run-getter in ODI cricket, racking up 13626 runs with 49 centuries and 70 half-centuries.

In T20Is, he is the highest run-scorer with 4008 runs in 107 innings of 115 matches. The batting maestro is a premier player in the Indian team due to his experience and incredible talent. There are several matches to recount when India landed in trouble and Kohli played his responsibility exceptionally and rescued the side.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/social-tracker-cricket/odi-world-cup-2023-virat-kohli-equals-49-odi-centuries-record-in-nearly-half-the-innings-to-sachin-tendulkar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Virat Kohli</strong></a>’s perfectionism makes him similar to Chhota Bheem, the lead character of the Indian animated series Chhota Bheem.

<p>Back in the 2014 IPL edition, he had an infamous fight with Australian pacer, Mitchell Starc, who was playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) back then.

<p>Yuzvendra Chahal is known for coming heavily on batters with his leg-break bowling excellence. In his seven-year international career, the star<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-appeal/indias-five-fabulous-batting-triumphs-over-pakistan-in-odi-world-cups-2650/" title=" India " target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong> India </strong></a>player has picked up more than 200 wickets in 152 matches.

<p>Marsh’s muscular physique makes him one of the best power-hitters in current times. Noting his aggressive batting style, Pat Cummins has tasked Marsh to open with David Warner in One-Day Internationals (ODIs). In Australia’s ODI series win in India in March 2023, Marsh showcased his batting mettle, ending up as the leading run-getter in the series with 194 runs in three games at a strike rate of 131.08.</p>

<p>Tahir used to exude energy on the field while serving South Africa and CSK on the field. After picking up wickets, the veteran was known for celebrating in his trademark sprint style. Noting Tahir’s vigour, fans who watch cricket and animated shows can compare him to the animated character Jackie Chan.

<h3>2. Rohit Sharma- Bheema</h3>

Rohit’s explosive batting skills make him one of the best stroke players in international cricket. The star player’s hard-hitting ability may remind cricket lovers of Bheem, an animated character in the 2013 animated movie Mahabharat. Bheem was one of the Pandavas in Mahabharat film who defeated rivals with his might and muscular power. In the animated film, Sunny Deol voiced Bheem’s character. &nbsp;</p>
