Workshop 90's cricket kits

[jle101]

Random workshop project for us shut-ins. I was wondering, what with all the talented graphic designers around these parts, if there was anyone here who would like to have a stab at doing some mockups of the awesome cricket kits that were seen during the old tri-series here in Oz during the mid to late 90's? I'm shocking at graphic design tbqh, but would love to see what someone here could do with these designs. Please allow me to attach a few pictures for reference. What I loved about these kits is that each country had their very own version of the design.

Australia

England

India (worn by the players for a tournament in Malaysia)

New Zealand

Pakistan

South Africa

Sri Lanka (with red numbers!)

West Indies

Zimbabwe

This is a pretty random thread, so I understand if the interest isn't really there. Just thought I'd put this out there as these are my all-time favourite cricket kits. I can also attach some team logos used during the time if that also helps.

Holy crap that's unreal mate. Did you just knock that up today?

Nah, a couple of months back.

These are insanely good, you've got it spot on down to the helmets, sponsors & everything. Works of art.

These aren't entirely accurate... the 1994/95 templates never actually had numbers on the shirts or pants, but I left them on there just for some consistency.

Looks superb & I agree with putting a value on consistency. The Zimbabwean jumper could possibly use a couple more green vertical stripes though, if the picture from the OP is anything to go by. Loving these all the same, can't wait to see who's next.

Almost forgot about Australia A, who also had a pretty cool look.

Would you also consider eventually doing the old school Mercantile Mutual Cup kits as well?

Also stumbled across a great image of the SL shirt worth sharing

These pictures are great. I would like to see what you could do with so of the older shirts. I have tried to capture the shirts worn by Australia over the years but they fail to be as good as yours.

These are prime cricket kits. My all time favourite looks. I have one of the West Indies 95/96 shirts from that era, and had no hesitation in buying the remake of the Aussie one when it came out last year.

I tried recreating the Aussie one of 95/96 but incorporated grey into it to match the GOAT Twenty20 shirts. It looked better in my head, but it still looked okay.

Would love to see if mfcrox has any more goodness to add to this thread
