It is the most common question on a cricket order, and there is a real answer for each kind of team.
Full sleeves: for the sun and the field
- Sun protection. An afternoon in the field is hours of sun on the arms. A full sleeve is the simplest protection.
- Fielding. Sleeves take the scrapes of a dive on a dry outfield.
- Bowlers. Many prefer full sleeves for a consistent feel through the action.
- The look. Full sleeves read as a serious, matched team in photographs.
A full sleeve jersey is ₹699.
Half sleeves: cooler and freer
- Heat. In humid conditions a half sleeve is cooler, especially for batters who wear pads, gloves and a helmet.
- Freedom. Nothing on the forearm for batting or wicketkeeping.
- Box cricket and tape ball. Short, fast formats on turf suit half sleeves.
A half sleeve jersey is ₹599.
Ordering both
Many club sides order the same design in both: full sleeves for long afternoon matches, half sleeves for evening and short-format games. One design, two sleeve lengths, one order. Mark the sleeve per player on the roster.
Collar or round neck
A collared jersey is traditional and suits club cricket and longer formats. A round neck is lighter and common in T20 and box cricket. It is a matter of look more than price.
Whites
Longer formats are still often played in whites. Coloured jerseys are for limited-overs cricket. We make both.
