Post by: skip1973 on June 09, 2016, 10:42:42 AM: Hope no one one bought an xp80 because of Usman, he will be using a rival brand in a few weeks.

He didn't have his own range as such did he?

He was poster boy for the XP80, yes.
It wasn't his range in the same way as the David Warner Kaboom though. I don't think they'd put his name to it.

Rumours are he's leaving grays at end of this series. So probably a good idea grays never named a range after him

GN knows when his contract is up, so they've used his image well without putting his name to a product. Mutually beneficial to both parties.

Post by: Bat and Ball Cricket on June 14, 2016, 05:28:48 AM: Dollars must have been good..... The retail bats have been $heit the last few years.

Who makes the pro's bats for Kooka?
Title: Re: Usman khawaja
Post by: skip1973 on June 14, 2016, 05:51:09 AM: We just got our 1st shipment of 16/17 bats in, they are a marked improvement on last season, the mid range stuff is quite impressive.

While Ricky Ponting believes a cricket bat is not a cricket bat if it's not a Kookaburra.
