Well, with the first friendly tomorrow, and before it rains or I have a change of heart, here are my kit bags for this season – league and my friendly side.
League firstBat: Uzi Sports Black Mamba, 2.98. Great ping all over this bat, unlikely to be challenged for no.1 spot for a good while.
Softs: Batas Cricket, top stuff, great value and protection – really pleased with these.
Helmet, Masuri Test steel - this is a stopgap in this bag until my new club lid arrives.
Aero P2s
Asics Gel Advance
Friendly secondBats: Hunts Insignia, 2.9, GM Neon 808 – a pair of beauties from Jake at Vitas. The Hunts is proper and will step up if anything happens to the Uzi, the Neon is just waking up too.
Softs: SS Whiteouts and Newbery Marlins. Lovely.
Masuri Test steel – well, you've that those before.
Aero P2s – old, stinky, ripped and grooved to my person, hence the new ones above.
Asics 100 not outs
The league stuff packs up beautifully into a GN Legend, the friendly a chintzy Slazenger Tour SD special.
