Title: Brett Lee's 6 at the Gabba 2005
Post by: langer17 on July 19, 2011, 07:08:07 AM

I've been looking for this vidoe for ages, and I finally came across it when I was just clicking random videos. Listen to that sound, perfect.

Looks like it is the Graphite backed Kook beast?

It's is, does that count as a laminate? Or could it be a wood/wood laminate as well as a graphite/wood laminate?

Given the current rules, I suspect that no-one will ever hit the ball quite as far as that at the gabba again...

Couldn't it!? Made a tremendous sound though, as he hit it! Pity they are now banned. Would love to use one!

- Definitely graphite backed - banned in 2006 by the MCC.

Didnt he hit a massive 6 at Trent Bridge in 2005 as well?  Wonder if it was the same bat...
