Title: New kookaburra bats ?
Post by: lukemannionzimbabwe on March 29, 2013, 08:22:51 AM

Just seen this in a mag, SA Cricket, and I was wondering your thoughts ? Also the gloves AB are wearing seem to be the same ones on the wall in the Mitch Mclenaghan post ?

Also Noticing on AB's Bat that it says Pro Players. Jake and Paul and Asad have your players bats got these stickers on them ?

Quite interesting !

Pics to follow:

The Gold/Brown bat is the Midas, and may launch in the UK to coincide with the ashes.

The rest of it may well become the 2014 range, as the softs etc are different to this years range, triangle pad in the glove etc.

Players bats in the UK currently say 'Players' on the sticker, and have 'Players' etched in black on the back near the toe.

Has anyone else noticed the majority of the Kooka players in the IPL are wearing the new style gloves and a few scattered with the gold wristband,   Could the Midas be the new flagship bat instead of kahuna??

Yes, Hussey (Mike) has been using the new gloves, and i have seen lots of them using the Midas style glove too !! It is time for a change though, how long has the kahuna been the flagship ? It might do something to entice new players etc etc

That blue one looks to have a nice, un-concaved profile

I believe that the new blue kooka is the return of the "Bubble"
