It was a toss up between 2, see if you can guess which one I chose!

Assuming they are the same weight and as much as I like those Dynadrives, I would have the Oblivion! The grains look sweet and it looks very generous!
To really choose between then though, I would need a mallet, and new and old cricket ball so that they can be tapped up and bounced the balls on. Plus I would want to pick them up and see how they feel.

But I reckon you went for the Oblivion!

Dynadrive is 2lbs 9oz. Oblivion is 2lbs 10oz. I based my decision on Paul and his opinion on the responsiveness.

If you didn't choose the Dynadrive you should be shot... Obviously the best GN bat of the current selection.

I would have guessed Dynadrive, if you went with Paul's recommendation. :)

Yeah, I went Dynadrive, Paul said it was better off the mallet and I preferred the look of the profile in the picture.
