That's alright!

It's all money though, that's normally the only reason the Pro's use certain stickers. Remember that despite who the stickers are, they are not necessarily who make the bat.

I guess you have not used top grade SS/SG/SF bats.
These companies make top quality bats at par with any company in the world.
Many uk/oz brands use bats made from these companies with their stickers.
So if a player gets good money then no issue in switching and also using their top quality bats.

I had an adidas and from what I'm lead to believe the first year (2009) which is when I got mine were sg made and that was decent!

Players with strong connection and exposure to IPL are the likely sponsorship targets for companies like SS, SG & SF. Think about it .. Morgan, Watson, Bravo, Pollard, Russell etc are sponsored by SS/SF/SG. I am not sure if SS is handing out so much money though, but i am quite sure the budget to pay for all these players would be less than paying MSD or Virat Kohli.

I recommend SS Maximus bat and TON Player edition cricket bats for anyone looking to get a subcontinent profile - low driving zone with a big bow.

I got a TON bat from GCCC. They get the TON bats to have a higher middle's as opposed to the low middles they normally have, which suites me just fine.

Aren't SF made in the SS factory?

Any pics ? I haven't seen a SS bat in US with a high middle. Quite interested in checking it out ...

Above is my topic about it. All of the TON bats ata GCCC were very similar shape to the one I got, just different sizes and weights. I have a mate who has an SS Gutsy which has the exact same stickers as mine but his middle is so low, but he would have got his from Whack Sports who would have gotten the sub continent market specific SS/TON shape.

GCCC did a video out their TON range - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OB-im3-GwI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OB-im3-GwI)

I agree completely. Last year I bought SS Maximus and it is simply too powerful. I could barely feel ball making any contact with it. Surprisingly, it crosses the boundary with ease.

Haha, then you better strap yourself in. Warner is definetly one of the skilled bat makers GN Australia Melbourne.

My Guesses:-

Watson is probably SG, but he has to supply his own pads.

BMc...no idea

Stokes and Root - Hopefully B3, but no idea

We would all love to know, but  publishing this hurts the brands paying the sponsorship.

See who can pm you there guesses....them pm me lol

Both are run by brothers. SS is old brand. SF (of Anil Sareen) is newer. I remember when someone showed me a bat of SF he bought when they were distributing their bats in clubs of my city for 6£ (GBP)or ₹500 (Indian Rupee), The time of bat purchase was 1996 when the Wills World Cup happened. They were promoting their brand at that time. And it was an excellent bat but we used it for tennis ball cricket mostly. But now they are nearly big as SS or SG also have some products better then them. But both companies products are lovely.
SS is more famous in India anyway.

Edit: Why is not Pound Symbol supported while Indian Rupee symbol is, its a British website as domain name says so

Think you find your very wrong MAYBE HAD A COUPLE FROM THERE BUT DEFFEIANTLY NOT ALL
funny thing is the best players will usually have a few sources
I know for a 100 per cent fact that Stokes Bmac and Root have had bats made by Jatin..

I think it pretty standard by now that SS have their bats in most if not all of the test playing nations kit bags somewhere.

IMO, and I maybe correct, SS are having money invested from some Chinese backing. They are everywhere.
