Edges : 40mm
Profile : Dolphin and full profile ( no concaving)
Pickup - picks up like 2.6 may be
Toe - big for its weight
Grains :9
Ping : super
Now the pictures

That is an absolutely huge bat for the weight!! Looks like a cracker, from the sounds of things on here BAS do not disappoint!!
-
Is it just the camera angle, or is the handle wonky?

sure will let you know how it goes

BAS is making some cracking bats lately..Best Indian brand IMO.
-
Indeed a big bat for its weight. Is this their top of the line bat?
-
@ursmasti how much was it?
-
I bought one of these from the same seller. Performance is excellent. My only query is that this dolphin profile, is meant to be the pro reject bats, but I haven't seen a pro use a BAS with that profile yet. They all seem to use the standard off the shelf profiles. I probably just need to watch more cricket.
-
Are these from the UK distributor?

Perhaps, but if that handle isn't straight then all the grains and edge size and likeness to saltwater mammals means nowt

From eclipse all sports.
-
The handle on mine is fine
-
Well, you're lucky. The ones Chad bought also had freely admitted handle issues....

Handle on this is straight its just the pictures are taken in an angle .

Could you take a shot from the top off the bat down to prove it? If I'm wrong you have my sincere apologies.

That looks a bit off to me, I am sorry to say... 😱😭😭😠

@Buzz Yes it does look off ...at first to my naked eye it didnt once i started looking more closely i do see it its bit off @hanif have you noticed similar issue with other BAS bats ?
-
That's a return job for me.
-
oh man..thats a bummer. I was seriously considering (and hoping for current bats to break) to get a BAS.
-
This is not the first BAS PE to have this trouble. A friend of mine bought BAS PE from India and he didn't notice the problem at first. During a practice match someone pointed out to him and he was pretty devastated. However he still continues to play with that bat and seems to be fine with a slightly bent handle.
@ursmasti - You can make a choice here. Either return it or get it replaced for another BAS bat which doesn't have this issue. Who did you get it from ?
-
Sorry .. Just read your post again. Hanif is a very nice guy to deal with. Just email him and he will sort it out for you. I got my first BAS BOW 20-20 from this guy and service was excellent, so you are in good hands ...

yes i am reaching out to him .

I would take grip off first and have a look at handle itself, spiral grips may create a bit of an illusion.

Update:
I have used it last night at nets and i see no problems with the bat nor the handle made any issue with me hitting the balls. most of my team mates were surprised how light the bat is and how good it pings . I am going to keep it and not return.
