What's common with these cricketers.............?

Question

Connect these players...

a) WG Grace

b) Mark Butcher

c) Ryan Sidebottom

d) Yuvraj Singh

I'm looking at a rarity (quite twisted) and I need a very specific answer.

And after finding the connection, tell me who is the odd one in the list

Answer 1

They all have noses.

Answer 2

most are Lefties~

and Yuvi is not a British~

Answer 3

WG Grace is batman

mark butcher is wicketkeeper

Ryan Sidebottom is left hander bowler

yavraj is allrounder

Answer 4

they've all had some kind of connection to "gilly". "gilly" was W.G. Grace's nickname, and the other three have played against adam gilchrist, otherwise known as "gilly". W.G. Grace is the odd one out because he came well before their time, and unlike the others, hasnt played against "gilly" (adam gilchrist).

Answer 5

All bat Left handed except Boutcher

Answer 6

they are all batsmen apart from sidebottom

Answer 7

they are all batsmen apart from sidebottom?

Answer 8

Attempt 1: All of them followed their fathers' footsteps, the difference being W G Grace's father was a doctor and the fathers of the other 3 were cricketers!!!!

Waiting......

Got it, the fathers of the 3 have played only one test match each.

In W G Grace's case, his elder brother, (not father) E M Grace had played just one test, the same way Neil Harvey's brother, Merv played only one test for Australia.

Tricky Q. Good one though!

Thanks, Your clues and guidance were spot on.
