The only info I have, and I received this from a BBL team's marketing team, is that it is being handled by BBL and not the clubs, and that a trading card set is on the agenda and will be released in conjunction with this summer. They had no further details either.
That sounds right. They did badges for each player for all teams last year, and they seem to be consistent across all teams with same merchandise for all, just in different colors etc.
Awesome news, lets hope its not a half a*sed effort, thats what kills the cricket collecting hobby, im sure collectors would buy the stuff by the truck loads if it was a decent enough release. A decent cricket card release is well and truely overdue!
Did the reliable source happen to mention who is producing the cards...because despite JHL distributing a few people have already said that it wasn't Select???
