OK settle down. Proper question. What do you guys wear for indoor nets etc. rubber soled cricket shoes or ordinary trainers? I'm asking because I only have cricket spikes and it seems a bit of a sphere ache trawling through cricket shoes to find rubber soled ones. I'm not a bowler so I don't need anything of that ilk, if forced to turn my arm over it will be off 3 paces. For indoor use only. Any ideas?

I use my artificial boots, I need them as you never know what sort of wicket you're going to play on at my level!

I've got a pair of Adidas 22 yard ones, the rubber soled ones. These also double up as a pair of football boots when I play on astro! Scored from my own penalty box on a 7 a side pitch once! was about 80 metres and keeper was off his line. Beckham who?

Just normal running shoes.

def trainers for fielding, poss rubber batting spikes if there is quite a thick mat.

Asics Running Trainers, light on the ankle and achilles.

Asics running shoes for me aswel.

tennis shoes.

I'm not a bowler, and they give a decent amount of protection when batting.

As they're ASICS, they look pretty much identical to spikes anyways!

Squash shoes to try and get some grip on a wooden floor.

I wear woodworm indoor cricket shoes I've ha to cut the toe out though they are really comfortable and offer great amounts of grip ( I'm a bowler )
