Recommend me some cricket gear.

[F32]

So, my season is starting up soon [both infirmary and mens] and I need some new cricket gear; pads, gloves, helmet, bag etc.

If you can recommend me some cricket gear that'd be great.

Bearing in mind that I'm 15 and 6"1' and 12 stone, I think.

Thanks.

aha.. i don't know any apart from slazenger, soz!

Just go for anything by any of the big brand names, their stuff is always good. I've got mostly GM stuff, but that's just my preference . Also you should go for a Short Handle or Long Handle bat if you need one. I use Short Handle, but then again, I'm about 3 inches shorter than you :rolleyes:.

a bat would be the best bet

Gunn and moore is probably best for pads and stuff, but i prefer slazenger pads because they're comfy

www.cricketdirect.com - thats a good place to browse some fo the stuff


http://www.cricketdirect.com/acatalo...cket_Bats.html - really nice bat but very expensive.

http://www.cricketdirect.com/acatalog/Genesis.html - nice bat and you can get some of that type pretty cheap if your not wanting to spend too much

unless you play alot and are very good i would nt recomend spending more than 60/70 quid on a bat, i normally only spend around 40 on mine


oh and with bats, try to get english willow reather than kashmir willow, kashmir willow is a pile of crap
