Australian International Cricket Season ready to go

Date posted: 28/11/2011

The Australian International Cricket season kicks off this Friday with the first test at the Gabba V New Zealand.

In exciting news for Gray-Nicolls Sports we will have a number of players from both countries representing the brand.

In terms of Australia we are likely to see David Warner  (Kaboom) making his first appearance in the baggy green after a number of solid performances in all forms of the game over the last twelve months. As well as this we also have Usman Khawaja (E41) and Ben Cutting (Chaos) picked in the squad for Brisbane. 

In the New Zealand camp we are represented by Jesse Ryder (Powerbow), fresh off a blistering 175 v Australia A on the weekend, Young Gun Kane Williamson (E 41) and Wicket Keeper Reece Young (Evo).

If we add to this the likely appearances throughout the summer of Shaun and Mitchell Marsh (EVO), Ryan Harris (Chaos) and Pat Cummins (Chaos), we are in for some strong exposure.
