England Test cricketer Gary Ballance (pictured) has joined the brand’s group of elite athletes.
“We are delighted to have signed Gary Ballance, one of England’s newest and brightest young cricketers,” Alan Hed, New Balance’s executive vice president for international, says.
“This will enable the brand to continue developing its global reputation for high performance products, with the New Balance range now incorporating both cricket footwear and cricket equipment.”
Ballance, who plays county cricket for Yorkshire, has signed a three-year contract with New Balance.
He made his Test debut in the Sydney Ashes Test last January.
Ballance says: “The kit is top notch and the footwear not only looks great, but is extremely durable and comfortable, which is essential.”
