That oblivion is a work of Art....... if i saw one like that in the shops id have to dip into my wallet....

HD telly is superp and i can imagine 3d tv is even better, i remember seeing a clip of the cricket in 3d when i went to see toy story 3d at the cinema and it honestly looked amazing, felt like i was actually there

What happened to the legend thingy?

I think he might prefer this bat, saw him using this in ODI's last summer, especially when he got 154 vs. Pak or Ban, I can't remember. He's had the quantum a while, assuming there's something wrong with the legend in his eyes, maybe its got some cracking starting..or maybe he blamed it for not batting that great since Brisbane...did improve with the new bat :)

LIKE LIKE LIKE! In all honesty I'm not sure why he's stopped using it, but tbf, I guess the willow in that Quantum performs just as well.
The Oblivion looks a beauty! :D

Strauss's bat does look like its got a few dents in it.

looks quite "soft"

I did mention the fact that I think Straussy has had that bat for quite some time, since the Summer, April if I remember correctly. :|
