Workshop Cricket Kit Designs/Discussion

I don't think the English team play cricket in Northern Ireland. All they'd need to do is wear green I'm games played in Wales, and it's sorted.

Exactly why the Union Flag isn't appropriate for the England & Wales Cricket Team when there's a flag that has the cross representing England and Wales (red cross, white background) from the Union Flag.

St George's Cross/Flag = symbol/flag of England and Wales
Union Flag = flag of United Kingdom, which includes Scotland and Northern Ireland
England Cricket Team = team representing England and Wales. Does not include Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Northern Ireland do not get included in the English team when it comes to cricket. The English cricket team is governed by the England and Wales Cricket Board.

Northern Ireland actually join with the Republic of Ireland to play as a combined team in Cricket, which is why they use a blue flag with green shamrock as the representation of the team rather than either Irish flag.

Then if the unlikely event occurs that we do clash with another country all we have to do is wear the other colour.

There never has been and never will be any 'clashes' in cricket. One team is batting and one team is fielding. It's not hard to figure out who's who.

hitthepost , the St George's Flag is the current English flag, Wales has a different flag.

The St George's Cross represented England in the Union Flag, Wales currently has no representation and hence there are calls to put the dragon or other Welsh symbol on the flag. England's sporting colours have traditionally been white or red (their World Cup in 1966) and Wales wear red in most sports as well. For mine, red looks better on England and they stand out from other teams like Sri Lanka and India in top competition now.

A click of the like button just doesnt cut how much I agree with this.

Yes. But I said

The St George's Cross on the Union Flag represents both England and Wales.

A couple of ODI and T20 suggestions. My designing number is 1 and the names I decided to put on the back were the number 1 caps from each form of the game.

Very much like the green one
Reminds me slightly of this shirt from South Africa:

Thats funny because that design was my least favourite out of the four. Ahh well each to their own.

BTW I forgot to mention the shirts would be worn with matching pants and caps/helmets eg yellow pants, caps, helmets and gear with the two ODI shirts, green gear with the first T20 shirt and blue gear with the second T20 shirt.

India have finally changed shirt sponsors, from Sahara to Star.
Sahara told them, oh, be almost 2 years ago or something, they didn't want to continue but would stay until BCCI got a new sponsor.

Good thing that you (I assume) bought it coz you support India, not Sahara

I bought last seasons jersey because I hate Nike's Dri-Fit material. It clings to the body too much.

I support Australia. Though, the rest of my family and most of my friends supports India.

Probably the best ODI kit we've had in years, shame we don't wear prominently yellow at home even though Comm bank doesn't sponsor the ODI series no more.

I don't think CommBank being the sponsor was the sole reason for creating a green home ODI kit.
It's a bit like AFL teams having two or three kits - more to sell, more for people to buy.

That and the green are the best kits IMO.

I think this was the best we have had in quite a while

It was a nice kit. Mixing green and yellow. Gilly and Haydos bashing England around in the T20 at the SCG.

Worst Australian kit of the lot. It didn't help that it had nicknames on the back instead of surnames:

I'm pretty sure it was a yellow vest, over grey/silver skins. That isn't cricket uniform.
