Any forum retailers have any NB 2016 gear in stock today? If so please share some pics :)

@Vitas Cricket sent me a picture of some lovely sticks earlier

We have only received a few bats so far. Hopefully some more should be with us this week.

The first few bits from the DC range have arrived.

Anyone notice that until he changed (just before he was out), Root was wearing white & pink NB gloves for a time today.
Also in the last test someone in the England dressing room was waving around a bat stickered up with black and neon pink NB stickers.
Is this going to be a new range?

Root wore pink gloves in the Durban test for a while

Saw some of the TCs in my local cricket shop the other day, think 560 and 1080 bats? A couple at £130 and a couple at £250 anyway. Looked nice but the grading was indistinguishable! Couldn't see any reason you'd pay the extra, just looked like they'd been bought as the same grade and stickered differently. Don't k ow if that's always the case but certainly was there, the £130 ones looked a decent buy at the price.
-
Stokes is definitely wearing the orange ones, anyone own a pair?
-
Yeh no I realised that after
My eyes are dodgy it seems!

UK range for 2016 summer? Looks good...
-
Says DC on the stickers so maybe pink next after the orange?

@at200 that's the bat I was talking about!
-
I must say i prefer the pink and black to the orange and black most definitely! just wish their pads for the DC range didn't follow pumas HDF thinking :(
-
Based on the lead times NB operate on (TC red/yellow kit has only just arrived in stock with us, DC black/orange was just before Christmas, ordered in the Summer) i highly doubt the pink/black will be a new range for the UK 2016 Summer as there has been no word from the brand about a new range for us to buy.
I suspect this is a special edition for the pink ODI (assuming SA still do one?) given NB's historical and ongoing links with SA cricket. There was talk that Steve Smith had a pink/black bat for the pink test that was unfortunately washed out.
-
Thats what I was thinking @Vitas Cricket probably had several bats for Smithy to choose from for that test so they dished it out to root instead. Who's the main lot of players using new balance? I know miller is but who else is there?

I've seen the DC1080 pads in the flesh and I'm not a fan.
I beleive the owner is thinking of selling them and buying a pair from Australia in hope of getting cane fronted ones.

I'm with you, I saw them in the flesh on Monday and wasn't overly impressed.

That makes much more sense than my theory!
