Post by: piethepker on October 13, 2013, 08:47:03 AM

More of a back foot player
Likes the drive and working through the legside
Light-ish bat
Opening batsmen
Higher middle

Needs to be a mainstream bat available here in Australia

Thanks!

Maybe something along the lines of an M&H Amplus.

Kook Viper has a medium to high sweet spot and he could pickup the Pro 900 (grade 2) for well under $400.  I've been very impressed by the Bubble II and the 800 model is only around $250 if you shop around.  It has a middle sweet spot but a lovely full profile with no concaving.  That would be my choice.
