Adidas Cricket Equipment

October 18, 2008 · Filed Under 2009 Cricket Equipment 

KP and his Adidas batI’ve mentioned before about Adidas coming into the world of cricket equipment (bats, pads etc), and today there is a picture available, courtesy of The Sun, of KP holding one of the new bats.

There is a fair bit of build up to the Stanford Twenty20 competition now in the papers and on sky, which is the first time that KP will be sponsored by Adidas, and using their new “Pellara” bat. The other bats in the range are the “Incurza” and “Libro” which aren’t exactly names which roll off the tongue but I guess they are distinctive.

One thing is for sure, and that is that Adidas won’t be doing anything particularly different to Woodworm in that they won’t be making these bats themselves as they don’t have the manufacturing background, but they do have a lot more resource behind them to make sure that it doesn’t become a repeat of that.

We’ll have to wait a bit until we find out much more about the bat ranges and the pads and gloves that will go with it, but when it appears I’ll let you know about it!

Edit: I have updated the blog today with some more information about Adidas Cricket Equipment

    I was told a few moths ago by a cricket shop owner that the adidas stuff will be quality but seriously expensive, and i mean far more expensive than other equipment available… they are hoping the KP factor will sell it….

    Hey, i designed the cricket range for adidas, and i can assure you that theyre trying to do something different to all other cricket ranges, and doing it the adidas way, innovation, style, telling a story by its design. The names arent supposed to roll of the tongue, but theyre better names than ‘atomic’ and ’stealth’ an obvious theme and story. The pellara is a beast of a bat, ive seen KP hit with it, check out youtube ‘KP reverse sweep’! amazing!

    No doubt it will be over priced and made by someone else. Just like woodworm selling county bats with different stickers for 30% more. Probably be good gear though, but paying lots more for the adidas and KP name.

    Suggestion to the same type of willow used by adidas. purchase top of the range indian bats at a fraction of the price and get the same performance out of the bat. And if you want to get some adidas bat stickers if you know where to look.
