Title: Biggest decision of the season! Please help
Post by: WalkingWicket37 on April 03, 2019, 12:49:37 PM
Afternoon all

I've got a big decision to make, that will impact my whole season.
My faithful club cap has finally got to a state it has to be replaced  :(

We have a choice now between a baseball cap or a baggy green. Which do I go for?

My club's membership day starts at 10.00am on Saturday morning, and Serious Cricket will be there taking orders for kit. I'll go for whichever option is most popular before I leave to get my stuff ordered.

Cheers guys  :)

A baggy is far too hot in mid-summer.

Always carry one of each and wear in a usual 5-9-4 (Baggy - BC - Baggy) rotation.

I like a sun hat.
Modern molten wool ones aren't that great in my experience so given your choice I would probably go for the baseball cap.
I would need to see and try on both...

Biggest decision of the season must be which bat? Not which cap 😀 especially for those who have more 3🙂

Baggys do get hot, but they look awesome. Get both. Of course the correct answer is sunhat. Extra runs awarded when batting in one...

I have one of each, I generally wear both at least at some point during the game as they quickly get sweaty.

Nope, choosing a cap isn't the most important decision, you'll  not agree anyways,
I use both, depending on the weather

For the record, I didn't include a wide brim sun hat as an option because I already have one of those for when it gets sunny! :D

Well today was the day and as promised I went with the CBF majority and ordered a baseball cap.

As this is CBF, I also ordered a baggy...
Can't wait to play an actual game of cricket now!

Surprised it was this close.
Also think you should have been given a viking option.
