The World Cup is not only a big stage for players to perform and compete with the best on the field, but also about their fashion appeal off it. And since the advent of IPL and other themed leagues, the style quotient and glamour in the game has increased many folds. Sometimes the hairstyle is about intimidation tactics, sometimes it says a lot about a player’s personality and grooming and sometimes it’s just pure art. So, here’s a look at some of the wackiest hairstyles in this edition of the world cup and some of the funniest reactions to it on twitter.

The comparison with Kim Jong-Un was a little far-fetched...
Virat Kohli and Kim Jong-un are sporting the same haircut. Who wears it better? :ppic.twitter.com/CbDsDI4p4x

And his association with Anushka also made a mark...

This description of the haircut is pretty darn accurate...
Shikhar Dhawan's haircut is like the Southern India, with Sri Lanka at the bottom.

And here too:
@Russell12A is man of the match for his quickfire 42 and 3 wkts & not for that haircut.

Till someone made some sense of it…albeit, in a fun way!
"😅😅😅@AssVegas: I really hate that André Russell is building a career in cricket with that haircut."

This is too much effort Dale! Seriously!!
70% of Dale Steyn's pre-match preparation for this match seems to have been about having an aerodynamic haircut.

*Chuckles*
Dale Steyn's haircut resembles a undernourished wolverine #IndvsSA #WorldCup2015

I thought that I had seen @DaleSteyn62's haircut before and then I remembered this. #SAvWIpic.twitter.com/02AV1FjsMu

This one hit the right spot it seems! Ouch!
@DJFreshSA Wayne Parnell's bowling figures are as expensive as his hairstyle.
