Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these pads suitable for professional cricket?
A: The SS STUMPER PU pads are best suited for club cricket, school competitions, and recreational play. Professional wicketkeepers typically require pads with advanced protection features and premium materials.
Q: How do these compare to higher-end wicketkeeping pads?
