After weeks of trying to justify the purchase, I 'bit the bullet' and made the purchase. I'm a bit of a Kohli fan.....MRF bat next :D
Outstanding gear. One of the most confortable sets of gloves I have every worn straight out of the packet.

I have always liked these gloves and find Bas to be very decent softs.

Nice gloves. All indian players prefer this type of batting gloves from what i have seen.
I've heard he uses youth size because he prefers a snug fit. Is that true?
-
I dunno but I have found these gloves in standard men's size to be a beautiful fit.
-
Very nice. Where did you get them from?
-
Big fan of these gloves, very snug and flexible for traditional style gloves
-
Always prefer sausage gloves and theses look good as well where did you get them from
-
Got them from JSM sports in Melbourne.

own 4 of these; amazing softs.. you can't go wrong with these sausages..

How do you all get on with the one-piece thumb? Seems quite inflexible to me (not having tried a pair)...
-
They don't seem well ventilated either, they're the only pair of gloves I've seen that don't have holes everywhere in the palm.

the glove itself is very comfy straight out of the package; like any other sausages it'll need a lot of wearing for it to be flexible so it can be molded to your hand...for the one thumb piece i feel it offers fair amount of flexibility without compromising on protection.

true; hence its why i own 4 of these... i use my newbery county gloves in the nets which is very well ventilated & wear these bas gloves during matches..

i own 2 pairs of these (as the Sachin glove) bought from Uzi.
compared to an English brand glove e.g. comparing to my old Chase 175 gloves, they are "slightly" snug. I wear a size 7 glove, so my hands are on the small side I suppose, but these feel snug without being tight.
Yes, they have little ventilation - the sides are fabric rather than mesh.
But there is some mystery in their design and the leather which conspires to make me feel like I can grip the bat better than other gloves. They are not restricting, whilst not being loose or flabby in any way. If you had larger hands, I think they may be constricting.
i think the sausage and lack of segmentation means they feel "neat" when other gloves can feel a bit all at sea in comparison - squared off multi-segmented gloves particularly - feels like the glove is pulling my hand rather than the other way around. i know this doesn't follow the anatomical principles of our fingers, which are have 2 joints each, but there we are. Perhaps its just what I prefer.
Even though our thumbs are also jointed, I don't use it to bend my thumbs around the bat, so have not missed a joint in the thumb piece.
I play with a "fingery" bottom hand - thumb and index finger doing most of the work and have noticed that that the over my thumb IPJ the glove has begun to scuff, tho not worn through yet, after a season. The palms seem fine. I prefer spiral or chevron grips tho, I think with an octopus grip, the palms may wear differently.
Recommended - but I don't have much to compare to!

Construction looks good.
I don't like the vertical square contrast bits though. I like the old diamonds.
I'm not a huge fan of mesh on the sides, as i think it reduces the lifespan of the glove.
I liked the end of the 90's Australian GN gloves with elastic sides in maroon, Excalibur i think they were.
