Sports nutrition brand High5 has announced a new partnership with England wicketkeeper Matt Prior, with the brand’s sports drinks, gels and bars now set to form part of the cricketer’s day-to-day training regime. 

Prior, widely regarded as one of the best wicket keeper/batsman in the world, played an integral part of England retaining the Ashes this summer, after the side secured a series win in the fourth test on Monday. 

The 31 year-old, who already sits fourth in the all time list for most dismissals by an Englishman in Test cricket, said of the deal: ‘My training for cricket has always been hugely important to me. Fortunately, in recent years, this training has been able to involve another one of my passions – cycling. To now be able to team up with a sports nutrition brand such as High5 is fantastic and I’m really looking forward to working with them.’

Mick Atkinson, High5 director, added: ‘We are excited to have Matt join our team of world-class athletes. The importance of using products that are 100% fit for purpose cannot be stressed enough when taking part in sport. Working with world-class athletes across a range of sports, enables us to test our products under the most demanding conditions. This benefits athletes of every ability regardless of the sport they are doing.’
