The traditional appellation for the clothes worn by cricketers. The clothes are, in the event, a mixture of off-whites with some identifying club stripes or marks, and an inspiration for white schemes, where textures and tones are more sympathetic than a single colour or material. The ideal of all whites is being eroded by sponsorship, and it’s an interesting comparison with interior colour and textiles to compare how much calmer and ordered an all white field looks, and further more how tones of white are easier on the eye than one white.
