  • "There used to be a bloke who gave himself out by walking when he'd hit the ball. The popularity of that within his team-mates may be shown by the fact that since his retirement, they no longer reply to any emails, phone calls or text messages."

    KP loves the boss

    By Will last year, mid-November Leave a comment on this post


    This isn’t some sort of lurid sexual expose about Pietersen and Vaughan, or Pietersen and anyone in fact. No. Today the ECB announced, with no trumpeting whatsoever, that Hugo Boss are to re-sponsor England. No trumpeting, but plenty of capital letters *. I’ve highlighted some of them for you for fun, because you all know how much I love pour grammer.

    The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has today announced that
    HUGO BOSS Clothing is to become the Official Formal Wear Supplier to the England Cricket Team. The two-year contract is in addition to an
    existing partnership the ECB has with BOSS Fragrances and Skincare
    (the Official Fragrance and Skincare partner of the England Cricket
    Team and ECB) which has now been extended until September 2009.

    The best bit though came from Kevin Pietersen who said:

    Kevin Pietersen, England batsman, is a big fan of the Boss range of
    products: “I love the Boss range of grooming products and use Boss
    Skin refreshing face wash on a daily basis. When I’m playing cricket I
    apply Boss Skin Revitalizing moisturizer with SPF 15 to help protect
    against sun damage. At night I use the Boss Skin Moisture Gel.”

    * Silly joke alert: What’s the capital of France? F.
