Picked up both of these from Talent Cricket over the last couple of months but haven't got round to posting them as I wanted to use them both first but Lockdown has put a stop to that.
So both were around £150 mark and had Talent Cricket's free knocking in service but without the edge tape as i can't stand the stuff unless there is actual damage to the bat.
The Keeley 074 is Grade 3 and isnt the prettiest but has got 8 relatively straight grains with a touch of heartwood and few minor blemishes. It weighs in at 2lbs 7.8oz.
The Chase Volante R4 is again grade 3 and has 6 straight grains and few blemishes, it weighs in at 2lbs 9.5oz.
Had the chance to use this a couple of times in nets and I'm very impressed with performance and the standard of finishing.

That’s where the other bargain Keeley ended up. Looks very nice hope they serve you well as and when we get out to play again

Chase seem to have a great line in less pretty bats that go like a train, sounds like a bargain.

That Chase profile is very nice.
