Title: Torpedo cricket

Can anyone tell me much about this brand as far as I'm aware they are based mainly in Yorkshire area. Asking for a friend who has been offered a couple of bats by them for an ok Ish price. The guy selling them claims he makes them all over here but I wouldn't say that was the case.

Yep that's my understanding Dave, have also seen a few whilst playing against Rotherham sides and they all went well (few years ago mind).

I had one 12 years ago when playing in Yorkshire from one of the Bradford lads in the team. Brill bat. Still going strong in the hands of one of the youngsters in the club. Definitely had a good one.

Think you are meaning Stephen Foster. As far as I understand it he is one of their main amabassadors but not sure he makes them or anything. Could be wrong though.

What a player though either way, check our his stats, batting and bowling!

Equipment is pretty good from what ive seen around our area and from mates that have used them.

Yeah my friend is playing with him at pudsey congs this year and he's the one offering it. Thanks for the feedback guys wanted to double check he wasn't getting to ripped off one of the bats is a very interesting looking butterfly but the 2 he has taken away to net with seem to ping.

This is a small world!!!  :D

I have two of these bats and another one was used by my team mates for solid 2 seasons as a team bat and was used to score a lot of runs. The two that I own are part of my lighter quiver, 2-8 and 2-9; very good bats!
