With the upcoming Amrita Rao-Harman Baweja starrer Victory also featuring well-known cricketers, we decided to look at the ones that have already tried to dominate the silver screen.
Here, then, is a quick cricketer-in-movie report card. Please note that for the sake of kindness, we have limited the grades from A to D instead of F. There's no point us failing our cricketers, even though... ah, well.
Ajay Jadeja - Khel
One of our most flamboyant one-day batsmen, Jadeja wisely chose an easy pitch: a role that didn't require much acting skill. However, he didn't realise his squeaky voice and bad dialogue delivery, coupled with co-star Celina Jaitley's tacky performance, would result in a severe flop.
