i just finished tendulkar, what i do to smudge all it out is use a very small smudge tool. it is the three pixel size one. i select portions of it and do it very slowly and carefully. I havent tried them in game yet, hopefully i wll get a chance later today.
If you can tell, i really started getting good after the laxman face. i smudged ganguly a bit much, but i dont think it will be too big of a deal.
Mongia is probably the best of the smudging i have done
