Yeah that one did not quite tie up.

Have to say, along with probably a good percentage of the forum, I find it a bit odd to say the least a test player in the middle of a very high profile series does not have a sponsor.

The only other time I can a remember it happening was when Clarke used a blank (and got 300 or something) until he then got a deal with Spartan.

Perhaps I'm putting 2 and 2 together and making 5 too.  :)

Seems odd thou

Maybe he has a pre ashes meeting with Adidas and greeted their representative in a similar matter...

Bit more on Stokes in the guardian they are saying he is there to get match fit in case he is cleared by the time the Perth test match comes around. Makes sense allround I think.

Also saying the ECB would brave any backlash from the public/the press/anyone really and forward date any suspension so he would be straight in.

Obviously that only applies if he is not charged You would think.

I remember a famous century scored by S. Waugh with a blank bat at the oval. Raising his bat from the deck.. injured

When was this? I remember seeing Steve Waugh in GM gear while Mark Waugh used Slazenger.

Stokes gets a less than friendly  reception   on arrival in NZ from the OZ press and Strauss   for issuing Stokes with a no objection certificate on Friday and then  reportedly stating  nothing else to offer regarding The Stokes situation on Monday.

Rumours are it was a Bradbury but I’m sure Hoover could confirm this

Could be wrong but
Wasn't  Julian Milchamp making his bats back then and also for other members of the Aussie team.

I think if you go back to the mid 90’s it was pretty common knowledge the Aussies had millichamp bats

Good spot from the forum on Waugh’s ton with a blank

Fabulous innings it was from a brilliant player

Only two that I think worked with JM and are still making bats I thought were Rob and Laver. Rob then went onto Kookaburra and Laver obviously started his own. I could be completely wrong here.

Anyone put two and two together and got 5 yet?


Bancroft head butt. Adidas and bairstow parting ways via "mutual agreement" seems pretty close together........

Rumour is a new big money GN deal is imminent.
