Gunn & Moore is not a brand name I am familiar with, although the quality of this product means that if I see the name again I'll certainly consider buying their products. This product is a set of cricket stumps with bails that are attached to a spring loaded heavy cast iron base. This means that using them is a lot easier in many respects than playing with actual stumps which you have to place individually into the ground. The main advantage these have over regular stumps is likely to be within a practice session. Any serious game of cricket is likely to employ traditional stumps with the three individual willow stumps, but these for practice purposes are ...  Read the complete review

What is the most annoying part of trying to practice cricket in the garden or in the park. For me it is having to fix stumps into the ground and then get them to the right level for the bails to fit on top correctly. Depending on who you are playing with, you then have to regularly readjust them when the wicket is splayed all over the place. As a spinner myself, I don't generally cause too much damage when I hit the wicket, in fact I don't generally hit the wicket much, but some of my more aggressive friends who prefer the art of fast bowling can really mess up the stumps if they hit them flush. This is a real aggravation for me, mostly for losing my ...  Read the complete review

Gunn and Moore spring back stumps are cricket stumps which can be placed anywhere and used as cricket stumps without the need to drive the stumps into the ground. They are the correct height, width and weight for stumps used during a proper cricket game and give the same feel of real cricekt stumps as they require the ball to be travelling at a reasonable pace to knock the stumps back. In cricket there are companies whose name is associated with quality, Gunn and Moore are probably at the top of that list and have been supplying cricket bats, bags and general cricket equipment since the 19th century. The bat to have when I was a kid was a Gunn and Moore with ...  Read the complete review

Cricket is something that I have always enjoyed. I used to play as often as I could at school, I used to play with my neighbours on the driveway and I always enjoy watching cricket when it's on TV. One of the problems with cricket though is that to have a proper game you need a lot of things that are quite hard to come by! For instance, you need a large round area, a decent bit a grass, at least 13 people and lots of expensive equipment. For these reasons it's only once every few years that I actually manage to get a decent game of cricket in. So I have to settle for the occasional game of the driveway. Now I'm a bit older this does not happen that often, but back .  Read the complete review

At my cricket club we've just had a couple of new nets erected. They are superb, offering good bounce and pace. I like to make the most of these facilities and regularly head down for a net session with a few chums. The onyl thing that the nets lacked were some stumps. Having grown tired of using peoples bags I decided to make the club invest in a set of these; the Gunn & Moore Springback Cricket Stumps. Ok they are quite heavy in weight, so you are not likely to carry them with you everywhere. But if you have access to a car, then you can transport them in that instead. The reason that the stumps are so heavy is because they are attached to a solid cast ...  Read the complete review
