So no bag, shoes whites? Sunnies? Thigh pads, helmet, box?
You seem to have forgotten half your kit in your enthusiasm to snow off your £11 softs!! And does that include postage..

Hmm, might get a bit depressed after totting this up!

Match bat, maker Unknown  350
Ss gloves which I love, 30 off here
Pads are about 10yrs old, and smell like it, some gn things, 30?
Asics gel advances, best kit purchase ever, fact. 90
Box is a sports direct special, 5
Shirts we got as part of membership this year and my adidas trolleys are at least 3yrs old, 20

So 525 ish

I've a shed full of part made bats etc that I pee about with and a bat press on the go which cost a damn sight more than my match kit!

Really shows the cost of cricket

Bat salix custom 400
Pads puma iridium (storm trooper) 90ish new? Long time ago
Gloves: salix 65-75?
Boots: new acsics 90
Oakleys - 150
Bag: red ink 50
Shrey helmet, present
Keeper gloves: kooks 90
Keeper pads: puma iridium - no idea
Ayrtek helmet for keeping 120?
Other? Another salix bat, laver and wood bats. Nike boots, more salix gloves one international dukes ball and kook ball.....

I dont want to know how much. It is silly. It is over a ten year period though. Both sets of pads ar very old now.

Two reasons really. The ayrtek is alot lighter and i much prefer keeping in it. I also need two helmets cause i hate putting a sweaty helmet back on for the second innings. Im also a little superstitious. Netted all winter with the shrey so i should bat in it.
