Bat;
After seeing my club mates (cricketer13 bhai) Icon LE I fell in love with the bat and I really wanted to buy it as it was amazing. Not only it had great profile but it had amazing pickup!
Anyways, coming to the bat so the bats were shipped out on Monday and we got them on Tuesday, shipping was speedy and was amazing!
The bat weighs 2.8 lbs but it has extremely light pickup and feels more like 2.6 lbs in my hand. I was at nets when I got the bat so I had few throw downs and Oh God it was amazing! The ball just flew off the bat. I played on front foot and back foot and the ball was flying seriously!!
The sweetspot to me does look long and the spine with concaving looks amazing! I think this sweetspot will be good for both front and back foot strokes.
The stickers are good and they aren't that bad but I still prefer my club mates Icon's stickers which are last years one.
Service;
So my club mate was ordering his bat from UK so I thought I'd get a GM along his GM. My friend (who I treat like my elder brother) did all the dealing and all I had to do was to give him my specs and he handled the rest, it was very very kind of him MashAllah. So I'm not too sure about customer service but it was ordered from Mapperly Sports but from what I saw there service was quite good.
Now here are pictures;
Enjoy!!
I will update you guys once I have full nets with this bat.

great looking bat CD. it looks bigger for 2.8lbs. Can I ask why did you go for Icon than Flare?
-
Thanks bro!
Good question! I also like Flare but I haven't picked any Flare so I'm not too sure how it picks but more importantly the reason why I bought Icon over Flare was because Icon has concaving and higher spine which I prefer compare to Flare which is no concaving and doesn't have a good spine height
-
what a beauty, but what else would you expect from GM!
-
Really coming around to the idea of getting a GM, especially with some of the stuff Edward has been saying on here. That looks a beast
-
That really does look nice mate. I think i might be purchasing one to keep my apex company
-
It looks awesome! I'm now getting 909 D3o batting gear. So will probably get a GM at te end of the season, or when my current bat gives up!
-
Many thanks guys I appreciate it.
I will hopefully buy GM LE 2011 softs when sale will be going on in December to complete a set

Thats a great looking GM Icon mate! And its MASSIVE for the weight and i hope it gives you plenty of runs this season.Great bat
