Who We Are
Patisserie by SB was founded by James Ashford, a cricket writer and former club cricketer who spent years searching for a single site that combined honest equipment reviews, structured technique guides, data-backed player rankings, and clear rules explanations. That site did not exist, so he built it.
What We Cover
Our content falls into four main areas. Equipment reviews test and compare bats, shoes, gloves, and gear across price points. Playing technique guides break down batting, bowling, and fielding skills with drills tables. Player rankings use verified ICC data to rank cricketers across formats with comparison tables. Rules and formats content explains everything from LBW to DRS in plain language.
Our Editorial Standards
Every article on this site is written by James Ashford. We verify every statistic against ICC records and ESPNCricinfo data before publishing. Price and product claims are checked against current listings. We do not accept payment for editorial coverage. When we use affiliate links, we disclose them clearly.
Independence Statement
Patisserie by SB is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the International Cricket Council (ICC), the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), Cricket Australia (CA), or any national cricket board, franchise league, or equipment manufacturer. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.
