Adidas Cricket Equipment Update
There has been a lot of interest in news and images surrounding the new Adidas cricket bats and equipment, and we are now in a position to show a little bit more. Ok, the images below aren’t exactly groundbreaking but hopefully you’ll like them nonetheless.
The image above shows from top to bottom the Adidas Incurza Cricket Bat, Adidas Libro Cricket Bat and the Adidas Pellara Cricket Bat. The Adidas Incurza is said to be for aggressive players, the Adidas Libro for back foot batsmen and the Adidas Pellara for the front foot player (including Kevin Pietersen).
I ‘ve got to be honest when I say I’m not that taken on the looks of these bats, and if you take that away what have you got left? An overpriced bat selling on the basis of sponsorship. Having said that, the interest created in these bats already is nothing short of phenomenal considering Adidas have done little to no PR, they’ve let people like me do that for them for free!!
I’d like to have a look at the bats and the soft goods in greater detail before casting too much judgement though on the feeling of quality of the whole range as a whole. There are a few places offering pre-orders on the range of Adidas bats, gloves, pads etc now, along with the new Adidas cricket spikes they have released (which I think they’ve ruined - but thats a post for another day!)

I don’t think it’s surprising that there is a lot of interest in the Adidas bats given that KP, one of the most exciting batsmen in the world, uses one and has promoted them.
They just don’t look right, and the pads / gloves are disgusting
I am a County player for Hertfordshire, and would like to change my entire kit over to Adidas, and was wondering about the possibilities of sponsorship. Our County coach James Hewitt(ex Middlesex and Kent)suggested Adidas.
