6 pairs for me, 3 for netting and 3 for match use

[langer17]

I carry 4 pairs for games - 2 match gloves that are the same and 2 spares just in case we have a net before the game.

I also currently have 5 brand new pairs in my stash at home. And then 2 other pairs which are just muck around gloves. So that's 11 pairs total.

I sweat a lot so like having lots of gloves however, I am also superstitious so if I do have a long innings I hate to change anything about my set up. Usually just end up changing my inners a few times.

Carry 2 pairs normally for matches. Currently 3 as one of them is about to be thrown away.

For nets, just carry 1 pair as the small duffle can only just about fit the entire kit.

2 pairs for nets, training and warm up.
2 pairs for matches.
I don't use inners.

Seemingly common response: 2 pairs for matches, 1 pair for nets - I also have other pairs at home which are now surplus to requirements, but there ready to step in as net gloves should the current net gloves need throwing!
 - Not the sweatiest man, but it does help having a fresh pair of gloves after so long - on the rare blisteringly hot day we have!

I'm afraid these gloves do not exist due to the lack of pictures 😀

[OwzatOllie]

2 or 3 pairs, 1 for matches and 2 for nets

[prav936]

2 pairs for matches and 1 pair for nets. I use BAS sausage players edition.

I own two pairs but just carry one pair in my match kit as I'm batting 8/9 these days so not needed that often! 

[SteffanLangholz]

1 pair for practice, and 2 for matches, no inners. Really need 2 pairs for that occasional hit that lasts more than 30 mins.. (Occasional meaning once a year)

[Seniorplayer]

Have 3 pairs one is kept for matches and two older ones for nets.

Two pairs for me in the kit bag on game day but i have third pair i use for training.

In the past, I've had two different types of gloves (sausage and shark split finger), but in the most recent season, i've had two pairs exactly the same.
The training set last season went well and truely manky, so a 2nd set was definitely needed. It was the first set of pittards i've uses. Not sure if that was related or not.

In regards to gloves in games, I really struggle with superstitions and really struggle with changing gloves during an innings. The first set have got you through the start of your innings....

I've tried a few times throughout my cricketing years to use inners. Haven't been able to transition to either full finger for cut offs, so, no inners in my kit.

3 pairs. No idea why, just always have had 3 in my bag. Normally only ever wear one pair for the whole season.

[sanredrose]

3 pairs of gloves - use whichever is dry on that day. I have my practice session towards end of the week and match during the weekend. So one or two pairs definitely ends up being soggy and third pair comes to my rescue.

Usually about 4 pairs on the go with 2 in the bag at any one time. Reckon they last 2 years per pair like this and keeps the smell down (a bit).
