I dont that shape looks anything like the shape ST actually uses, you would have thought they would have at least tried to get somewhere near his match bat shape........thats just lazy in my eyes!

I agree - they look nothing like the bat Marty Graham made for Sachin... http://www.mg2cricket.com/bats.html

Hmmmmmmm.......I'm a little sceptical of that whole episode, it would be very easy for any of the custom batmakers on this forum (SAF,H4L,Redback,Vantage etc) to walk up to Strauss, Pietersen, Kieswetter etc and just hand over a bat and hey presto, all of a sudden you are the batmaker for the worlds best cricketers and this is the shape that all the pro's go for. (Not saying this is a bad thing to do mind you :D) To me, this was just a shrewd bit of marketing, however i expect any of those bats on the list to be crackers and take nothing away from Marty, he seems to make a top bat......just ask the Hosk :D
