In an Instagram post shared on July 20, Jordan Tabakman, a celebrity hairstylist who has worked with several players from the Indian cricket team, shared the only guide you need to show your barber to get a similar haircut as your favourite cricketer. Let's find out:
Hairstyle inspired by Indian cricketers
How many times has it happened that you have visited a salon and asked your barber to give you the same haircut as Virat Kohli by showing him a picture of the cricketer, only to get something that doesn't look quite similar to his hairstyle? If it is too many times, then maybe you should consult the guide Jordan shared on Instagram for your next appointment.
Sharing the guide, the hairstylist wrote, 'For many years, I've been asked what clipper lengths and techniques are used on the styles of some of the Indian cricketers I've cut. Being style icons in India, I've added a guide for you to show your barber.'
1. Virat Kohli
According to Jordan, to get a side part mullet hairstyle just like Virat Kohli, here are a few things to remember:
Over direct point cutting
A cutthroat line
Clipper at number 2 setting to shorten the length of the hair, a number 1 setting (openm/closed) and 0.5/0 setting to add a little fade, and 00 setting for a bald look near the ear.
2. Hardik Pandya
For the cricketer's crop fringe haircut, the hairstylist suggested point cutting dry hair forward from the crown. Then, using a number 1 (open/closed lever) clipper setting for cropping the hair on the side, and a 0 setting to add a little fade.
The hairstylist also shared the guide to achieving Surya Kumar's crop fringe haircut, Devdutt Padikkal's crop haircut, Ishan Kishan's mullet burst taper haircut, and lastly, KL Rahul's square layers.

Divya Deshmukh clinches Women's Chess World Cup gold: How much prize money will she receive?
. Indian chess prodigy Divya Deshmukh became the youngest to win the FIDE Women's World Cup on Monday at just the age of 19, outshining the seasoned Koneru Humpy in the tie-breaker of an all-Indian final. With her win, a feat that left the teenager emotional, Deshmukh not only earned the prestigious title but also became a Grandmaster. The victory for the Nagpur player came after the two classical games played on Saturday and Sunday ended in draws. After the drawn games, it was the first set of tiebreakers that proved decisive as Humpy lost her ground. Divya Deshmukh became the 88th Grandmaster of the country, as she emerged victorious over Humpy at the FIDE Women's World Cup. She his now the fourth Indian woman player to achieve the GM feat after Humpy, Dronavalli Harika and R Vaishali. 'I need time to process it (win). I think it was fate, me getting the Grandmaster title this way because before this (tournament) I didn't even have one (GM) norm, and now I am the Grandmaster,' she said. Divya Deshmukh secured a gold, Humpy Koneru pocketed silver, while China's sensation Tan Zhongy finished the tournament with a bronze medal. According to the FIDE website, the total prize fund accumulated for this year's Women's World Cup was $691,250. Out of this, the winner will be given $50,000. This means Divya Deshmukh received a prize money of $50,000, or roughly ₹ 43.5 lakh for winning the prestigious championship. The FIDE World Cup also awards three spots to the FIDE Women's Candidates Tournament to be held in the first half of 2026. However, the prize money is significantly lower than that of the FIDE World Cup (Open section, which includes both men and women), where the winner gets $110,000. During the tense contest, a string of inaccuracies in the second rapid game contributed to Koneru's downfall. She found herself a pawn down in the rook endgame, which played out in Divya's favour. The veteran allowed the situation to sink in and resigned on the 75th move and fell short in a gripping final with a score of 2.5-1.5.
