Should find out when he plays tomorrow! Could be blank bats for the time being I guess as he has done in the past.

As in no stickers - not 'blankbats'!

Unlikely that he'll have got a new sponsor sorted so quickly? Or maybe not?

Using SS would be a big two fingers to GN.

did Bairstow leave spartan because they owed him money? if not im sure they would do a short term IPL deal, especially with warner in the team would be good for them to have both openers

No issue with the match. I just meant it seems a bit strange that some cricket fans would rather talk aboit what stickers Jonny Bairstow is going to have on his bat next.

It is a cricket bat forum to be fair...

What I would genuinely be interested in is how much a player like Bairstow is worth to a cricket brand

Opens the batting in IPL. Gun player. The Indian market is huge and he is likely to be very valuable for any Indian brand that snaps him up. I can see DSC introducing a “Belligerent Bairstow” model.

C list, I should say.

A list are the guys with marquee value - Kohli, Sharma, Smith, Root, maybe three or four others.

B list are the guys who offer the best bang for your buck - either guys like Sibley and Burns who fit a profile, spend time on telly and are probably quite sensible in the money they ask for or those like Morgan and Buttler who have a good media game.

C list are the guys who've priced themselves out of B and are not good enough for A.

Anyone who scores a lot of IPL runs is going to be worth a pretty decent chunk of sponsors' money.

Seems unlikely to me that Bairstow was being paid less than Burns and Sibley.

Bairstow is a top odi opening bat and has been successful in the IPL, he will be worth more than county pros who have played a few test matches.
