1 pair

if you catch the ball right it shouldnt hurt.

Garrett's right, it shouldn't hurt. My mindset is that I receive the ball, rather than catch it from the bowler. You don't want to pad your gloves out too much and lose the feel of the ball

I wear one pair modified as I don't like having padded thumbs

One is plenty, if needed you can get the padded inners but they do "dull" the feel of the ball a bit.

Just the 1 pair of chamois. Thats all you need. Have tried 2 pairs in the past and the glove felt too tight couldn't feel the ball. And wetting the gloves made no difference whatsoever either. If you want to try something different, those Aero one are nice, the ones with the strategic padding.

If you decide to go for the aeros I would strongly reccommend trying them on first. I tried some on this week and found that the fit was horrible for me

i wore chamois' for year but now wear the cotton padded inners. They are much more comfortable and longer lasting. I would go though at least 4 pairs of chamois a season as they go out of shape.

Never tried the Aeor inners...maybe next year

I've wore them for a few weeks now and are perfect, have felt no pain or brusing at all which i used to get with normal inners even when taking the ball perfect all day you would end up with slight bruising, with these you don't
