Title: Lekka RDX big hiiter vs black cat joker
Post by: Karan62 on September 16, 2012, 07:28:52 PM

i know that the joker is pretty much THE T20 bat but i was wondering what makes it different from the lekka rdx big hitter ??

The Joker and Lekka are pretty much identical in their original guise!
I did find the Lekka (I had 2 of them) to be very good quality willow which flew! But the Joker I have is even better quality willow and goes like a rocket!
It depends on your budget really! Both are excellent though.

Having had one of each in their original form, it's nigh on impossible to tell the difference.  The newer ones are a bit different.

The Lekka used to be a lot cheaper price wise. But still went well!
I sold my Lekkas as the Joker was all that was required, and is another level above the Lekka!

Good luck on finding a second hand one - there were a few on this forum!

To go further than district mate, I would suggest you want to work on using a proper bat, as opposed to turning into a t20 slogger, which is what these bats tend to do to you!

You sure? Ask your coach, when I played district cricket we played 30-40 over games with SOME T20. I'd tend to side with nick on this if you want to make it into county cricket you want to be batting properly, wouldn't recommend a T20 bat!
