Bats, pads, gloves, boots...skysports.com tests them all out!
They say a bad workman always blames his tools. The same words can also be applied to club cricketers up and down the country. A good piece of willow can make all the difference, whether it be for those classical stroke-makers on the local village green or those who use rather more agricultural methods to plunder runs in their local evening league. With summer now here (though don't let the weather fool you), skysports.com has decided to put together an equipment guide for those who play the sport extremely seriously...for a few hours over the weekend before the bar opens up. So whether you're thinking of getting a new bat or in need of updating your pads or gloves, check out our product reviews of the best equipment currently around...BATS
