literally just watched this
-
I wonder of its still a short blade long handle type of bat like he used to have at GM
-
I want! I want! :(
-
I literally got hold of a Joe Root bat few days back so what a timely thread to mention about his bat.
Yes he is still using shorter blade and longer handle.
Enjoy pictures.

Very nice bat. Looks like from OLS?

I'm sure this is the one on eBay

No sourced from another person. Also been told by NB dealers that they don't sell short blade and long handle bats.

Yes mate it is

Can't be one of Root's actual bats - where's the sharpie?!

It's in a wrapper so can't use a sharpie unfortunately lol

I'm sure root uses kippax bats anyways

Well he definitely won't be using bats out of shrink wrap...
-
@shax12 , what's the weight of the bat and how much did you pay for it?
-

definitely doesn't have the 'new balance' sticker on the edge either

Haha exactly, it quite clearly isn't one of Joe Roots' actual bats. It's about an genuine as my batting ability!
-
It's a lovely bat but it's not a joe root bat is it. Not the same profile hi bits a stunner
-
Well the bubble has been burst on this thread. Can't help feeling slightly deflated..
:)
-
From the FC Sondhi sticker it isn't even a genuine New Balance, let alone a genuine Joe Root bat :(
-
Joes bat or not it's looks a nice piece of willow.
-
It looks a stunner! Best grains through the toe I've seen for a while
-
You willow sniffers dont miss a bloody thing!

??? You've got better eyes than me or even I.

Had received these pics from crown cricketer
He said these are full profile bats. The sticker does give manufacturer's name - FC Sondhi
Another Indian brand owner also mentioned that its now required to have the name of manufacturer on the product.

Joe Root's current bat is a very similar shape to the GM Mana if you look at it from side on. I may not be right though as my Root players edition Six6 and my Mana do not look alike really. It seems though that GM had that profile to release around the time Root left GM and once he did it was their hail mary so to speak.

I love when he says "the bats he gets through NB are fantastic" (rolling my eyes).
Interesting that he only seems vaguely aware of the bat weight. Michael Hussey once said "if it feels good in the hands it means runs" and Joe says the same.

Hussey carried round scales with him, and would religiously weigh his bats

My apologies, it was David Hussey, not Michael Hussey who said that.

Looks a very good bat all I can say really

Enough please, no more insults or name calling. Haven't had a reason to lock a topic, delete posts or ban somebody in a while, would be a shame to have to do so now.
