Height of players is consistently discussed topic in cricket. Watch any match and you could easily find commies discussing height of players at some point of time.

A certain height makes  you a better  batsman ?

Being good is advantage for a batsman, small or tall.

All of them wear shoes right so the 1 inch odd will cancel out.

ya but not shoes are made the same so there's likely small differences in how much a shoe adds to the height. 

 

plus when just posting photos, there's perspective, camera angles, posture all to take into consideration

yes on the perspective if the camera is higher the further guy looks taller and viceversa. In Ishants case he looks taller than 6'4" or 5" guys in front shots, and KLR looks taller than Ashwin in front shots. those two are reporting reduced heights or the others are all hyping lol. Shoes might bring in a few cm's variance unless someone is wearing lifts.

Bosnians/serbs/croatians/Dinaric people  are the tallest guys in the world.
