My Cricket Gear is doing a 24hr Reviewathon on Instagram- see link to his bio below-

Interesting concept and lots of videos of all sorts of brands.

I think it is part of a fundraising 24hr net session at the Cricket Asylum but not 100% on that.

Clearly a lot of work has gone in to this but such a shame about the sound quality so much background noise going on

I met him while at IJC in December, lovely guy. No affiliation with them other than a good customer who’s there regularly AFAIK.

I popped over for a couple of hours and had a look at his collection of bats, some lovely bats on display, seemed pretty knowledgeable

Mentioned the forum, think he may be on here or has been in the past, and said he was a good friend of Chad's

Yes that is him in the videos batting, he was very generous and let a lot of the other players borrow bats to have a hit with

Was absolutely gutted that I couldn't make it down for the Netathon at TCA. Couldn't get time off work.

Went in on the Saturday and saw a couple of the younger lads who seemed very stiff after it haha.

Been following some of his videos and posts on insta - seems like a ever expanding collection. Must be tough work!

But would certainly enjoy doing so lol

Would be good to see him venture out with more "smaller" brands - worldwide...

Oh, missed this thread! Good friend of mine?! Someone who buys bats that I want/am thinking about buying is no good friend of mine! :D

Jokes aside, top lad, massive cricket gear geek. One of the few to see my bat collection in person, and the most recent one to do so. He isn't affiliated with any retailer or batmaker, but if he has a good experience shopping with you, will point others your way. Oh, and he has a very high quality collection!

Don't do instagram, but is this the chap who recently tried to reduce his large collection down to about 5 bats?

He seems to spend more on bats than Pete Hosk in his prime.

I had a quick look at one of his videos. He was talking about how much grips weigh - to the 0.1 of an ounce!  :o
