Hi everyone so here i am with an update of this B4 that i received from Tai back in april. Its seen nearly 6 months of action in both nets and matches and scored over 600 runs. And just today i was lucky enough to get Hafeez and Fakhar Zaman to sign it. I decided to remove the old scuff and give the face a light wax and was shocked to see not even a single tiniest of crack on the entire face, edges or toe. Dont get me wrong this bat has smashed balls out of the park. And i also edge it alot. Have dug out a fair share of yorkers too. But such durability is very rare in the bat market today. The bat itself has opened up beautifully and there isnt a dead spot under where the sticker ends. It really is something special. (Even hafeez really liked the balance and ping of the bat). Interesting thing to note is that it has gained an ounce from when i first got it. It was 2-8.5 and now its 2-9.5 on the scale. Wonder why that could be. Gona let the wax soak in overnight and apply the new scuff on tomorrow. Onwards to the rest of the season...

UAE. And i reckon it could be cause i oiled it couple of times perhaps. And it never sees the outside of a full length cover except when im using it so it doesnt lose much moisture

More than likely a bat can lose weight easy being in the car in the heat

Congratulations on nabbing such a fine piece of craftsmanship!

No need to mention that bat maker. Part of me gets depressed by that thought that I am not sufficiently stocking on bats by this particular bat maker. Oh the loooong sixes I have hit this season. More please. :D

That batmaker produces a number of bats for a number of companies which are white labelled or stickered up as a lot of us are aware

However this may be slightly controversial .. not meant to be btw

Can this bat maker also produce anomolie bats which just don't perform even though the reputation is fantastic .

When I say not perform the ball just doesn't go as you would expect

I'm.guessing even the best bat makers can produce dud bats from time to time

Did you offer Hafeez exchange for his "MB Malik H Pro"?

U can tell by looking at it. The shoulder style etc. Even the blade itself. U can easily tell no pakistani made bat looks like that
