Choose your favoured make for batting equipment including bats overall.
Minor counties suck and then you play for one

I have to say I'm surprised kookaburra isn't a straight choice on the poll, as they make some fine equipment, they used to be my favourite make until I saw all pumas new stuff.

kookabura dont really apeal to many people who actualy want a GOOD bat, more people who want nice stickers. more kids buy them than adults.

also the graphite reinforcement hing is illegal, which doesnt help

Laver and wood bat and gloves and aero pads and thigh pads. My laver and wood bat is the best i have ever had and the Aero pads are probably the best new thing on the market, i will never go back to ordinary pads (including thigh pads) again.

I'm with Wiggy.  Aero legs, thighs and chest are the best around.  Also, they are starting to do bats and gloves - see Shnae Bond at the Champions Trophy...

they do actually make some good bats but for my llikes they way far to little the have nice pic ups but have no meat but if you just wanna tap singles or as an indoor bat they dop make good bats.

I like Laver and Wood bats but they dont have much equipment.

I use Kookaburra kit, had a Hunts a few years ago and it snapped. Bought a Kooka Sword, scored 84 in the next match. Seeing as my previous best was 42, I stuck with that bat. Since then I've had a Belta and now a Genesis, and would be loath to change any time soon.

CA is a very good brand. The CA bats back here sends the ball real good.
