Title: Alex's A-Z challenge
Post by: alexhilly1492 on April 27, 2018, 12:57:03 PM
during a slow day at work a colleague and I have been working on naming a cricket company for each letter of the alphabet! thrilling i know!

however i got given the challenge to own a bat from from companies from A-Z, as a CBFer i found this difficult not to accept! obviously i have already started on this process but have an awful long way to go! there is no time scale on this but would love to complete one day!

Those in bold i either currently own or have owned in the past - those not bold are ones i wish to own in the future, any input on the funkier letters would be greatly appreciated! some i have added are brands i wish to try in the future or admired for a while

I will be! She’s annoyingly observant too so this will be a real challenge!

That’s like saying any brand tk make for are the same, for the purposes of this challenge it’s fine!

If I was going for bat makers that would be another thing all together

I suppose yeah. Sounds like an expensive but enjoyable challenge though.

Maybe we should expand this to see which letter of the alphabet has the most bat brands associated with it... to help with the launch of any new boutique brand.
