Your Cricket New 2010 Kit

[King Pietersen]

Definately heading back into cricket this season, after 2008 was hit badly by my shoulder, then the start of the 2009 season I tore it again, so this year I'm definitely feeling 100%.

My question is, I'm a no.3 by trade, can stick around but generally get used to quicken the RR as our openers like to take it easy (I play in a team with two 30+yr old openers) and I've had my Kookaburra for about 4yrs now, so what is the best bat our there in the region of ?120-160.

Gunn and Moore. You can pick up the Icon, Hero or Apex for ?169.99, and they're awesome bats, probably the best mainstream company making bats atm. I've got an Icon and it's a great bat, but if you're looking for something abit heavier with a bit more meat, then you'd probably be best off going with the Hero. You're going to get an awesome bat whatever GM you get though.

You don't want a good bat then?

 

[Kiko_97]

It'll do for now, don't need anything too expensive for now.

Looking for a bat with a bit of meat definately. I've always toyed with the idea of a GM, had Kooks or a Slaz, thats it.

I really want a bat which has a nice balance, which would allow me to swing and also to knock it around, i'm a very incapably diverse batsmen you see.

 

[King Pietersen]

The Icon's pretty awesome for that. Light pick-up but meaty edges and a great middle. I've had the 909 since last winter nets and it's been just awesome, easily the best bat I've ever had, and I'm not even remotely tempted to get another brand of cricket bat, definitely sticking with GM now. G+M also do a refurb service for ?35, so if the bats got a few surface scratches you can send it away over the winter and when it comes back it's effectively a brand new bat again. Looking to get mine refurbed soon.

The only thing new that I have bought new is my bat (most important piece of equipment for a batsman I suppose.) All my other gear is stuff I pick up from Trademe (budget NZ version of eBay).

I suppose if I had the money I'd go for some new gear, but I don't.

I will buy a set of ss batting gloves and pads. I use the puma spikes and also going to buy a albion helmet.

Does anyone else buy gear when you don't really need it that much, like I bought a new helmet when I could of waited till the end of the season as my current one was fine. I think I just get bored with the same equipment and end up buying smaller items for my kit bag.
