The Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been a melting pot of cricketing prowess and personal style, with players often setting trends both on and off the field. In the 2025 season so far, several cricketers have caught our attention for their distinctive beard styles. These grooming choices have become a source of inspiration for fans looking for beard trends this season.

A prime example is Virat Kohli, a trendsetter for nearly a decade now. His neat full beard remains a template for countless fans and teammates alike. The crisp edges and balanced volume reflect his disciplined approach. Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya embraces experimentation: whether it’s a gradient fade along the cheeks or a stylishly trimmed moustache, his beard transformations mirror his flamboyant character. In the current season so far, here are the players who have sported trendy beards that can be your mood-board for your summer style.

Virat Kohli (Royal Challengers Bangalore)

Virat Kohli has consistently been at the forefront of style and grooming. Ahead of IPL 2025, Kohli unveiled a sharp side fade hairstyle complemented by his signature well-groomed beard. He is known for his neatly shaped, full beard with a defined outline.

KL Rahul (Delhi Capitals)

He prefers a balanced medium-length beard that complements his calm persona on and off the field. His full, neatly-trimmed beard enhances his sophisticated appearance, a good choice for people who appreciate timeless grooming choices.

Shreyas Iyer (Kings XI Punjab)

To give his round face some definition, Shreyas has debuted a full-face beard with more definition and density on and around the chin area while the hair around cheeks are faded to give lenth to the face.

Shardul Thakur (Lucknow Super Giants)

While he's being applauded for his magical balling spell, Thakur's beard style has a separate fan base too. You won't see neatly shaved beard lines but a different patter covering his cheeks, giving the face a unique look and definition.

Ashutosh Sharma (Delhi Capitals)

This rising star is already under spotlight for his performance against Lucknow Super Giants. Something else that's worth noticing is his beard style; a moustache disjointed from the beard and stubble on the face with focus on chin, this beard style is a good choice for summers.

Rashid Khan (Gujrat Titans)

He recently achieved a milestone of taking 150 wickets in IPL and therefore, he's definitely the player to look out for. And that's not just for his cricketing skills but also for his look that suave, to say the least. Perfectly trimmed, shaped and sculpted, Rashid is seen with a moustache, goatee and faded beard, almost with an ombre effect.

Mohammed Siraj (Gujrat Titans)

Trust Siraj to serve looks and this time with his beard. We are loving the full face of beard which is pointy at the chin giving his face much need definition and length.

Sunil Narine (Kolkata Knight Riders)

Know for his all-rounder prowess and quirky hairstyles, Narine is also known for his quirky beard style. He often pairs is goatee with a moustache but this time he has grown his chin beard in length which definitely is not for those who prefer safe styles.
