The company manufactures cricket clothing and equipment including bats, balls and other equipment. The company manufactures the red balls used in all Test cricket in India since 1994.[3][4][5] The ball is hand-stitched with a more prominent seam resulting from the thicker thread used for stitching.[6] While its pronounced seam makes it last longer, the ball does not swing earlier but starts swinging later. The protruding seam gives more control for the fast bowlers and a firm grip for the spinners.[7]
