I had one like this the other week. Tried on nearly every pad and glove, but none fitted like his Slazenger’s set. Every bag wasn’t the right height for him and to top it off the trousers were all to long as he had short legs!

No, and he was in the shop for the best part of 2 hours

To be fair to CBF its members are likely to go in for a grip and end up with a full kit.

IM guilty of this when it comes to spikes  :(

Spent about 20 minutes trying on all types at Romida. Bought a pair and then changed my mind a week later 😢

Went back with the intention of a refund, settled for a new helmet instead. I fear that I’m turning into a kit monster like the rest of you 🤣

I went into owzat to get the cheapest steel masuri they had other week.

Left with the titanium model..... And a halestorm bat.


I may not frequent cbf as much as I used to, but unfortunately its ways are deep within me.

Look forward to seeing pics of the Halestorm, is it the Kronos or Predator from last season?

Did anyone else catch it when he said the more you spend the better the performance of the bat. I turned off after that

Also, I'm not sure if choosing a new bat based on the colour of the stickers is the best advice as well.

And by the way, I was somewhat fixated by the bright pink grip anyway - #kittragic
