Use to have an old Tusker! Was Ancient, could just make out the stickers on it.....had the worst pickup ever haha. A club I used to play for had it in their club kit, so I bought it from them for $50. Shouldn't of ever gotten rid of it.

Classic though.....the cut-out in the back of the bat with the other cut-out kinda bit down the toe of the bat

Something called a terry-armoured Clipper. Not from a brand I have seen before or since, but it was size 5 and I still have it somewhere. Covered in this weird stuff that would gradually chip off with use.

Soon followed by a proper 405 in Harrow. Glorious.

...can people remember their first softs? I had 3d's own brand pads & gloves. Pads were canvas & amongst the 1st generation of velcro straps. Gloves were sausage style, with crumby cotton palms & itchy elastic cuffs (before the days of towelling cuffs)
