We are Gray-Nicolls; The iconic cricket brand built on over 150 years of heritage, where tradition meets innovation.
The Gray-Nicolls name came to be in 1942, as two illustrious brands of the time joined forces: HJ Gray and Sons and LJ Nicolls.
Grays was a manufacturer of rackets and cricket bats based in Cambridge and established in 1855. They famously supplied to the likes of King George VI and Ranjitsinjh.
Nicolls was an independent cricket bat maker in Robertsbridge, East Sussex who provided bats for WG Grace and CB Fry.
In this new partnership, Gray-Nicolls continued to thrive and soon became the cricket brand of choice, with a host of iconic cricketers on its roster, such as Wally Hammond, Keith Miller, Ted Dexter, Richie Benaud and Frank Worrell.
