The most crucial factors to consider while purchasing cricket shoes are comfort and grip.

A helmet is a necessity for both batters and wicketkeepers.

A quality pair of pads will keep your legs safe from injury.

The most critical piece of equipment in a cricketer's gear is a bat.

Collared shirt (white in tests and domestic; as per team kit in one-day formats) with short or long sleeves depending on the climate or personal preference.

Long trousers (White in tests and domestic; as per team kit in one day formats).

Jumper (a knitted pullover, if necessary). This may be long-sleeved or sleeveless.

Thigh guards, arm guards, chest guards, and elbow guards protect the body of the batters. Some batters use these and others do not, since they reduce mobility.
