Shouldn't Gooch get a mention?

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

And Martin Crowe. You could probably make a team out of those players who had hair implants... Gooch, Kallis, Crowe, Vaughan, Matthews, Warne... Well, okay, you could make half a team.

Sehwag?

Oh he's right up there my bad. Think Rana Naved ul-Hasan deserves a mention

How can you forget Ganguly.

How can you forget Ganguly.

If it's a syrup, it's a bloody good one.

Boycs has to be worthy of a mention in any slapheads XI. IVA Richards thinned out quite dramatically towards the end of his career too, although it did seem to coincide with his downturn in output, so maybe it was a Samson dealy with Sir Viv.

Surely RANA should be an inspiration to you then...of how to wear a hair transplant :P

Wasn't Bradman light on top as well?

 

[hang on]

bradman is definitely right on top in my book.


regarding ganguly, he cultivated those fronds and some clever tonsorial management ensured that his follicularly impairment was mostly evident when he bowled.

Eddie Barlow...aka Bunter.

 

[vcs]

Gary Kirsten, Langer, Hayden, Sehwag, Strauss, Herschelle Gibbs, Jayasuriya. Plenty of follicularly challenged openers.
