"They" - he makes them himself :) thus I would imagine he would set aside the very best cleft for his own match bat....I would anyway if it were me!!

Post by: TangoWhiskey on March 26, 2014, 11:18:38 AM: I think what I don't like about a square toe is that it makes the bat literally resemble a plank of wood.

Shoab, Sudeep makes bats to sell too. He is one guy who has been working and developing on this forum like Ryan. Excellent guy and from what I know there is no doubting the quality of ST bats :).....very tempting.

Subdeep your new stickers are exceptional mate, one of best I have seen.

lot of International players are using this profile with some adjustments, Kohli/ MC/ Sangakara to name a few.

seems to make sense.. why bother having much meat at the bottom. what are the main adjustments? just the sweet spot by a few mm?
Title: Re: My Match Bat
Post by: Northern monkey on March 26, 2014, 07:16:35 PM: Very very nice cricket bat
Exceptional craftsmanship

Did you arrive at the shape/profile based on bats you have used,and know works for you, ,or is it purely copied, and hope it works?
Title: Re: My Match Bat
Post by: mad_abt_cricket on March 26, 2014, 07:23:07 PM: Yes mainly the sweet spot and the handle as each individual player has his own preference for handle depending on the playing style.
Ex: Kohli uses super thin handle to be able to use his wrist in literally every shot, the thin handle give more flex and allows him to whip through the shot.

Thanks.

Have been working on this shape over a year now and it has evolved based on my experience over time. You may want to look at the evolution of this shape in my earlier posts in bat making section.

this looks almost exactly like the clarke bat. same sweet spot location as his (around 185mm from the toe, I think)?

super job mate.

also, looks like about a 1mm scoop? or is it just the pics that give the impression of very slight concaving?
Title: Re: My Match Bat
Post by: mad_abt_cricket on March 31, 2014, 04:33:43 AM: There is none, perhaps it's the angle at which the photos are taken.

nice work. how is the pickup? a bit bottom heavy given low middle + no concaving?
Title: Re: My Match Bat
Post by: mad_abt_cricket on March 31, 2014, 01:27:21 PM: Pickup of this shape is pretty good due to the toe shape.

Absolutely perfect in ever way!

Stickers look classy too.
