Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: BOWLERS - WATCH OUT!! Comment: I brought one of these bats, direct from India, half-way through the N.Z cricket season last year. From the fist time I used it (68) I was impressed, HUGE EDGES, MASSIVE Sweet spot, great balance (as you lift the bat higher in your backlift it gets lighter!). If you go hard at the ball it sails a long way, 2 weeks ago I hit a popping delivery on the up, on the edge, it sailed three quarters of the way to the point boundry. (not a good shot, but just to give you some impression of the power) This is a top of the line bat, worth every cent. (they retail in New Zealand for $595.95) When knocking in special attention needs to be given to the edges and toe, as the bat has so much wood IT WILL TAKE LONGER TO KNOCK IN, than a normal GM, Grey Nichols or Kookaburra - If you dont want your bat to crack or break, that is. Pro's The offical power meter for this is 9.5 out of a possible 10. Great for stroke makers and the tail end slogger, due to the HUGE sweet spot. Eccellent pick up and ballance. Oval handle. As used by Sachin Tendulkar, Steve Waugh and Brian Lara. Con's Needs more knocking in than smaller bats-the longer the better. Toe guard would be advisable. Mine came with 2 grips already, two grips are a good idea. Hope this was helpfull. More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: This top of the range bat is made from the best English Willow and normally has clean, straight grains. These bats have been carefully crafted for optimum balance and punch. It is suggested that the bat be used with good quality cricket balls.
