Slightly odd question, but I was wondering whether there was a list anywhere of bat models that were effectively banned due to the ICC introducing the size restrictions (i.e. maximum length of 38 inches (965 mm), maximum width of 4.25 inches (108 mm), maximum depth of 2.64 inches (67 mm), and maximum edges of 1.56 inches (40 mm)).

A team-mate has a number of bats from around 2010-2015 and was wondering which ones were still legal versus illegal. I know that we can measure them (or find someone with a bat gauge), but it did make me wonder if there was a list that actually noted the models that were no longer compliant.

This is the problem when Instagram/social media or the likes of CBF declare something to be the new must have. Causes issues for retailers and people wasting their time.

I've probably lost days of my life dealing with people looking for 45mm splice measurement and 20mm shoulders, as then they won't get shoulder damage. Or some other similar very questionable request 😆

Hunts Turbo was the original. They then started doing it on all their bats. They may still do, although much of their own brand range is thought to be imported.

Meuleman's in Australia have just released the GN Air, which is similar to the Neocore but has a normal handle/splice. Still has a hole drilled out the middle from the splice down

It's in line with what they've done in the past I believe with the hollow core technology - the hole is not as large as the Neocore, hence why they can splice it normally. I believe their Ultimate 1000s used this too. Hunts have also been doing this in the past, and may still do

It was a B1 - 2lb 10. I've used it in a match now and it made a nice sound
