Isn't it far more likely that they like a particular bat (most likely one belonging to a teammate) than a particular brand?

Yes, that too.

It is just silly to think that a "professional" would be beholden to one "brand" bats. They swap and grab whatever feels best to them and slap stickers. In the behemoth bat days, Warner and Khawaja were using Kranzie GNs which are made exclusively by GN AUS. That was an exception simply because only GN AUS were making such big bats at the time. Other than that, it was open season on all brands stickered with sponsors' stickers.

I’m sure most of the sponsors don’t care as long as the right stickers are on the bat.

Might of been Livingstone I think I read sponsored by Adidas but was using an SS I think he borrowed from a team mate.

Might not of got that 100 per cent but think that’s what I read

Riyan Parag's bat.

Adidas bats may well be made by SS anyway?

the economics kinda is surprising. Pak players go for a Gray Nics or a GM to get more money on their contracts (e.g., Babar) and yet Eng players go the other way round. Surprising to see Pak brands have the kind of money to sponsor UK players especially with the GBP being so strong and Pak economy struggling.

Such big money when people know that stickers are so easily transferable?

Think they have an account open with a few bat makers. Because I was at Keeley the other day and overheard an instruction to contact XYZ at Adidas for payment.

I’d have thought these would be for sponsored players, I’m yet to see an off the shelf Adidas that looked keeley made!

Yes, I thought we're talking pro bats rather than ones for general public.
