This is a fun picture.
I am sure a lot of us with cricket-playing fathers/brothers survived on hand-me-downs when younger. Here is 16 year old Chanderpaul Jr playing first class cricket with what looks like his Dad's kit!

Different gloves, pads. Maybe the same bat. Or he is sponsored by GN as well?

Love the bail technique to mark your guard. Not that I would have the guts to do it myself.

I didn't mean exactly the same kit as in the pictures, just hand me downs.
