| I use MB Malik Tiger gloves which are nice, although I can also say that SS Sunridges Matrix pads and gloves are quite superb |

| I have used a lot of different kinds of gloves. I find the Gray Nicholas are the best. I have used a lot of different pads as well, and I find that Kookabura pads are the best. |

It holds the pad firmly in place around your knee increasing protection to that area |

Basically all soft products made in India/Pak. Alot of them in the same factory, get ripped off at your peril. ------------- Don't Believe the Hype |

I am using Matrixx gloves and pads at the moment,which I have to say are superbly well made (India),have the same design as many of the branded goods available in the UK and cost half as much.Leaves me more money to spend on my bats and shoes! www.matrrixx.com Mark

I just bought new pads and gloves for the current season. Bought some Newberry pads and some County gloves. Really really good gear. |

That is true. I myself order my gloves off the net. BAS Gloves, the one that Tendulkar uses/used. I saw him using them in the 2003 WC. Anyway, only costs me about $15 and they last a season  |

Here's a question not asked a lot do you guys prefer gloves that have a lot of small pieces of protection http://www.owzat-cricket.co.uk/acatalog/Genesis_Hurricane.html"> or ones that have just a few big pieces of protection http://www.cricketsupplies.com/showimage.asp?s=2&path=\ImageLibrary\Slazenger\gloves\pro x-lite.jpg"> p.s sorry for my lack of proper grammer ------------- The First Century I ever saw was Heschelle Gibbs' 228 against Pakistan |

| That's a really good question (i do know what you mean!). I've always used split knuckle gloves (little bits) - I like the look of them and they feel good. But recently I acquired a pair of gloves which have the long 'sausage' padding and I've been really pleased with how comfortable they are. I'm not sure whether they are as protected as the split knuckle ones, and but they certainly looser and more comfy to wear. Although I do personally prefer the look of the split knuckle gloves though. The jury is out with me! |

I just invested in some Morrant Ultralite Pads.
They were expensive, but absolutely amazing! Its like you aren't wearing pads! ------------- Don't Believe the Hype |

| guy at my club has them, and i agree they are atually incredible! one pad weighs less than like a standard thigh pad! and the design has grown on me. |

| I have a pair of Diablo Test gloves Youth, I have tiny hands for a 31 year old! But they fit me superbly. I wear a pair of small men's Morrant Ultralite pads, for thigh protection I use Obo's (now Aero cricket) P1 stripper pants. When I am on unpredictable minefields I wear Obo chest guard too. I like my pads/gloves almost skin tight so I dont feel like I am lugging on excessive materials when I am out in the middle. |

i have just got some fusion sports gloves and i think that they are brilliant. they are so light and when i put them on the didn't have that horrible stiffness which new batting gloves tend to have. i am right handed, and on the right hand glove this is this unique index finger protection which i havent seen before on any glove. they look really good too, they are plain white, and a cross between square and sausage style batting glove which is a unique combination in gloves as there are not many gloves like these. these gloves are top notch and i really do highly recommend them! |

There is a lot of talk of brands here whereas we should be concentrating on features and size requirements for each individual. Sponge bolsters, straps, number of ribs can be very different as can be the height of the pad and the position of the knee. Try this site, getpaddedup.co.uk, they list pad height and knee-position and have some handy prices too. |
