Get him an @Ayrtek made TomTek! 

Hoping he will be donning one but was a bit short notice to get one turned around for him before his BBL call up over Xmas.

Spartan have bought out Slazenger in Australia. I'm not too certain if that also equates to other parts of the world, but at the very least, the Australian wing of Slazenger have been purchased by Spartan. May explain the label change.

Spartan have had the Slazenger Dunlop distribution rights (not necessarily ownership of the brand itself) in Aus/NZ for a few years, that deal pre-dates Michael Clarkes move to Spartan.

Sports Direct own Slazenger in the rest of the world and i would be amazed if that changes any time soon.

Cool. Hardly any Australian players now have a Slazenger sponsorship, so that might explain why.

Is anyone sponsored by slaz minus jaques kallis?(who could not be sponsored at all, just running old equipment)

Morgan and Roy gone, smith Miller gone to NB, wright and bairstow to grays, prior unsponsored having list Spartan too.

James Anderson as much as I dislike him!

[Come in 5 and left a bit]

Hope Slazenger don't disappear I still have fond memories of my V100 Waugh zone bat from years ago. I got it from Lillywhites in London and thought It was the dogs danglers

[Neon Cricket]

They won't disappear completely but I can see them becoming a Sports Direct only brand in the long run

It's even worse that that....look at the B&W picture of Brian Close in the background; he's using an old Stuart Surridge!

Such a shame my first proper bat was a Slazenger V Caribbean over 25 years ago, my V500 still absolutely flies as good as anything.
