Post by: Hoover on December 16, 2018, 06:17:03 AM: He used SS in the Adelaide nets.

Post by: csnew on December 16, 2018, 09:56:26 PM: Kohli and AB both use SS. They usually leave the sticker on the handle, if not sharpie of their names at the bottom of the bat

They don’t. And I don’t imagine Virat writes his name on his bats. Maybe his mum does.
Pro bat my (No Swearing Please).

They sound like they're the same gauge barrel as Mr Roy's.

Post by: Kez on December 18, 2018, 06:20:47 PM: I’m guessing this is just a stock Kohli shape...
Maybe SS sharpied it to identify which shape it was made into?

Post by: CricketXI on December 19, 2018, 04:53:10 PM: I am not sure how so many Players bats are coming out in market, but I am sure that whatever are rejected or not taken by International players are going to Domestic players as SS sponsors a lot of domestic players as well. This simple fact makes me think most of the sharpied bats are just stock shape not real bat meant for Kolhi.

He got atleast 2 bats from TK when Indian team was touring UK earlier this year, which I believe is a common thing where players look out for local bat makers and try their bats out.

Recently I have seen him using BDM logo on his helmet suggesting he have some links to them, may be he is getting some bats from them as well along with SS.

Post by: adb club cricketer on December 19, 2018, 05:56:33 PM: He got a few bats from TK while on UK tour doesn't necessarily mean he is using TK bats in all games. He could be trying few bats from different batmakers around the world wherever he visits but highly likely he is using SS bats in general.
