Title: Paul Stirling
Post by: Twelfth Man on July 05, 2013, 11:07:05 AM: I was watching the Twenty20 game last night on the box and whilst Middlesex, well Paul Stirling was batting, a thought came into my head. He always seems to have a new sponsor?! After looking at some Cricinfo pictures on what is a quite boring Friday lunch, it seems he's had a few since 2009.

1. Kookaburra
2. Spyder
3. Gray Nicolls
4. SS
5. Boom Boom
6. Woodstock (Current)

6 different sponsors and he's 22 years old. Alright for some hey!

Anybody else think of any other players who have gone through quite a few sponsors in the same fashion?

Akmal!

He said players, not just randomers who turn up in cricket whites and try and join in with everyone on the pitch

I did wonder why the likes of Hafeez left boom boom for Ihsan.

At least one of those was just kit he'd bought, or so I'm told...
