Peter Siddle is arguably the second prominent cricketer after Jason Gillespie to become a vegan. The Australian fast bowler who made his comeback to international cricket after a span of two years is a firm believer of a plant-based lifestyle.

Peter Siddle broke the stereotype that you need to be a meat-eater to build a strong and masculine physique. He has been practising veganism for the past eight years and believes vegan diet helped him regain his fitness quicker post his injury.

His then girlfriend, and now wife, Anna Weatherlake helped Siddle become vegan. He has cut all animal products since November 2012.

Famous for eating a lot of bananas, Siddle gained vegan inspiration for becoming vegan from well-known sports celebrities like Carl Lewis, Venus Williams and Serena Williams.
