Keep an eye out for the men in white coats (not umpires)! :D

...little bit 'challenging' on the styling front for my taste, but if you're looking for something to stand out then they would definitely do that!

More i look at the gloves more i like it but those pads are horrible looking cheap imitation of Pumas...If they didn't have those two circles on the front they might have looked a little better..

the two circles are Boom Boom's thing though aren't they.

i love the gloves, the pads are a bit wild.

Some people are able to carry it off, wearing kit like this, don't think I could. Might work as a bit of non verbal sledging with batsmen thinking about what the keeper behind him is wearing.

Specially if you put some scarey eyes in the circles  :)

Not sure how soft the circles are, but say you miss the ball and have a long barrier in, I guess the ball could hit the O at and fly off in another direction??

Gloves are nice.

I don't know why but every time I look at those circles on the pads, my mind imagines that if the ball hit them there would be fireworks/paper streamers shooting out the pads like a cheap gameshow. Or maybe the trumpet/claxon that started in the IPL but is now used at sports events everywhere would go off.
