To my mind there are two different sorts of sponsored player, the ones who are physically paid to use a brands equipment and those that are given free gear but no retainer. I would imagine that every brand in existence would love a player to come to them and say, I play for Hants, Surrey, Glam etc can I have free gear....I can't imagine any player with a pro contract is struggling for a gear sponsor...! The only guys you ever see with blank bats are the ones waiting for the big money to be offered!

Thought players had an allowance i.e they can have upto £3000's worth of kit...

Tomgoose is the guy to talk to!

Would guess Newbery by the hammer edge sticker.
And i doubt anyone wants him haha the way he bats.
Could do with a new lid though Tomtek should get on to him.

I'm going with Prassana Jayawardene's old GM, Angelo Mathews' GN pads and arm guard and someone who uses SF's gloves.
