The bat that goes best is CA 12000 Plus. But the bat I love the most is GN Powerbow loll |

| Cover Drive, your stuff is awesome! The CA 12K plus softs are as good as any other! Agree with the helmet though - get a better one! |

Yeah, just because you only have one of the big 4/5 brands, it doesn't mean your kit is crap! It looks nice. The CA pads look aswesome! |

apperantly they have some sort of Air Ventilation System to keep the legs from sweating (not like the Kooka RP pads, where the holes are random silvery bits). dunnno if it actually works
Did you get the UT bat from Karachi? |

| Imo, the smaller brands' (Warsop,Solitaire,CA) Be it english, Indian or pakistani.There products are higher quality than the bigger ones. Because most of it is hand made and not factory made! |

Thanks for the compliments mate :)
Actually when I got the helmet I was not aware of cricket kits or the brands. Now I am loll I am planning to get a new one. I always wanted to get GN Predator helmet. If I don't go with that helmet then I will buy CA helmet (I believe the one Dilshan use). First I used to have a Masuri helmet but I had to sell it as it was a bit too small for me
Btw the CA 12K Gloves I have are the old ones now. Since they came out with new ones recently
Once again thanks! |

Yeahh the pads are a bit like Kookaburra Ricky Pointing pads but those ones have a knee roll (I believe) whereas this one doesn't
Don't Kookaburra Kahuna Mayhem pads have these same type of hole as well?
ASV3 pads have these holes as well
Uhmm I am not quite sure if they work since I barely use those CA pads. I use GN pads rather than CA pads which are a bit big for me :( but hopefully they will be fine after a year or two. I am thinking (nothing is confirmed yet) of buying a new pair of pads and gloves but I am confused. I am not sure whether I should go for SS Superlite pads (which does not have any gloves that go with them) or buy Kookaburra Kahuna Mayhem Pads and gloves (but again these pads are a bit similar to my CA pads or in other words my CA pads are similar to them) or buy Kookaburra Ice Sub Zero pads and gloves. Anyone's thought and advise are welcome and would be appreciated. Thanks
Btw these are the ICE Sub pads I am talking about

As far UT bat is concerned I got it from my friend who plays in same club as me. He had initially bought it from Karachi. You are probably are aware of this UT bats are UT Sports brand |

loll yeahh the MB Malik bat next to CA one doesn't look great because it is the painted version and paint has come off the bat face and that's why it looks a bit crappy. I am also thinking of selling that bat as well as MB Malik Sher Amin.
The UT Bat is a heavy bat and I had gotten that from my friend. It is not a great bat but for practices it is fine. But it is quite well used.
Ohh loll that is not SS bat. It was a plain bat but then I had put stickers on it loll. I got this bat along my first kit which came from Pakistan. This bat is not that great either (it is a bit thick but the ping is that great). But again it is good for practice and especially when it rains and I don't use my good bats so I just use this bat loll
Uhmm I used to have Masuri helmet not sure which one. But that helmet was a bit to small for me so I sold it. The current helmet I have was bought from local classifieds. I like Masuri Titanium helmet and other than that I like CA helmet and Gray Nicolls Predator helmet (the one Mohammad Yousuf and Daniel Vettori are using currently) |
