We are all aware of how important the appearance of celebrities is. Especially in the case of women, looks are given extreme importance, sometimes even more than their talent. Many of the fans select their favourites on the basis of the glamour of the players, rather than taking into consideration the talent of the player. This kind of judgmental attitude towards players is likely to take a toll on the game, as the women who have average looks but great talent will always be scared of being judged and refrain from taking part in the game. Besides, the focus will shift from the true spirit of the game and the talent of the players to superficial glamour quotient.
