The captain of Indian Cricket Team, Virat Kohli is one of the most talented and celebrated cricketers in the world right now. Many times we have seen our cricketers net practicing wearing white thigh pads. Well if you have observed, all these kits have one thing in common, i.e, the signatures on them.
From Sachin Tendulkar to Steve Smith, we have seen almost everyone wearing those thigh pads. While most of us believed that these protective gears with signature must be for ‘good luck’ or something like that, considering the fact that many cricketers believe in lucky charms and they have piled up runs wearing or carrying their lucky charms with them to the ground.

Recently, when the official page of Indian cricket team posted a few pictures of him wearing those thigh pads, many of the fans said that the pads are carrying the signatures of Anushka Sharma on them. Well, if you are one of those people who believed in this, then it’s time to wake up.

The autograph is neither of an actor or actress, nor of any cricket legend. The autograph on pads is of Steve Remfry.
Steve Remfry and his staff has been producing custom made arm guards, thigh pads, chest guards, inside thigh pads and shin guards for world-class cricketers since 1987. He has provided custom made gears to almost every top cricket, right from Sunil Gavaskar to Shane Warne.
As per some records, Virat Kohli has ordered two more sets of these gears. So, next time you come across any picture or video of Virat Kohli on those thigh pads, don’t like it with Bollywood.
Have a look at the autographs on the gears :
