Title: B3 sponsors Shan Masood
Post by: AJ2014 on February 16, 2019, 01:48:09 PM

Pakistan cricketer Shan Masood is sponsored by B3 cricket. It's definitely a very appreciable that sub continent cricketers are also recognised by top English bat makers🙂

Not really a new phenom.. Shadab is sponsored by GN.. as was Yohana. Think one of the Akmal brothers used to be sponsored by GM. Just not had the high profile players recently...

In the past Imran Khan had a few English companies sponsor him... Akram used to use DF...

If they perform I am sure brands will reach out.

That's true, of course I've seen them all playing but think it's one step forward from those big companies sponsorship.

True... not really seen any of the Indian players use brands outside India for sponsorship.

Maybe SS and SG have more clout and bigger market in India.

Someone noticed that even Rizwan was sponsored by GN.

And I was like, probably it's an off the shelf GN bat, and he doesn't want to take the stickers off because it makes the bat look naked and ugly.

Rizwan, shadab khan and shaheen shah afridi from pakistan are all sponsored by GN. They even wear GN gear when playing for pakistan.

Imran played some of his best cricket with County as his sponsor. Then he went over to Gunn and Moore and used the Maestro.
