Title: Imam ul Haq bat shared on insta
Post by: Mfarank on June 04, 2019, 10:47:05 PM
As shared on insta by Bristol Bat doctor. The weight is astonishing. As mentioned in the comments, seems very responsive yet very dry. Very similar to Sarfaraz's bat that i held couple of years ago.

Is that the weight without a grip judging by the 2nd photo? Still very light at around 2-6.5 with a single grip.

I saw Sarfaraz's bat a few years ago. It weighed around 2-5 - a big bat for the weight.

He is an opener facing the new ball at 90 plus mph.. so this shouldn't be surprising.

Great but how would it hold up against a £2.99 slazenger ball in Sunday League?

This is what sku's everyone's thinking when it comes to bats, bigger is better and it'll help you hit it further etc. Nothing to do with the power, timing and where on the bat you hit it?

Bet it has no better 'ping' than most bats from any respected batmaker really.

And he still can't play short balls.

And he still has more international or non-international runs than most of us on forum...
