That reminds me....a T20 version of a H4L would be pretty awesome.
Plus I was loaned an Affinity Spectre for a couple of nets, and I reckon the Affinity T20 model would be epic!

Paul @IJC had an Affinity Toro. The exact T20 bat you talk of.

It had amazing grains and pinged like nothing else!
cool branding too.

Ask him if he can get another.

Laver and Wood Signature and Newbery Cenkos simply because they cost so much
And a Aldred Supreme because they look really really nice

Affinity are sold out for 2013. Paul's is also a one off grade 1 i believe. In addition to the normal run, there will be a small number of G1 Toros next year i think, but Marcus is the best person to ask about the details i guess.

Hmm this is a tough one as there is so much choice out there and there is so much I have already tried

One bat that keeps calling me is H4L Tempo, some day I will get one.
Other than that I think a Hammer bat would be interesting, I have tried a couple now that belong to friends and these are a different league all together.
Third would be SS pro bat, which I am in the process of getting. Some bats that were destined to CSK players but weren't used, we'll see what they are and if they are what they are claimed to be when it gets here did see one at a tournament 2 weeks ago that was supposed to be for M Vijay and at 2'9 it dwarfed my 2'11 bats.

For those thinking of BR LE I have one, my RPC was/is the best bat I have ever owned till the Blue Room LE which I purchased earlier in the year.

And Aldred have been noticable lately so that might something to think about too..

I'm very excited to say that the IJC affinity toro is now part of my bat collection and the grains are indeed first class :)

Screaming Cat Series 1 or 3, pressed by JM himself - So I could have a bat made by who is possibly the best podshaver around.

Newbery Cenkos - To see if it is really worth the £1000 price-tag, or if it's just an overpriced G1. (Will most likely be the latter!)

A BAS made by their master podshaver, the one who made bats for Sachin, assuming he still makes them. Will most likely be the best Asian bat money can buy!

Although I'm more than happy with the Warsop Platinum I got at the start of the season it seems us cricketers can't wait to try something new!! My choices in no particular order:

Blueroom custom - guy at our club has one and it goes like a train!
Aldred - Paul looks to be turning out some stunners just lately!!
H4L Hattori - hear nothing but good things about them

After discovering this forum there's no way I'll go back to using 'off-the-shelf' bats.

1. Laver and wood signature, £1000 for a bat, must be good!
2. Gary Nicolls dynadrive le from vitas cricket, grains! And love the shape.
3. And of course the new gray Nicolls nemesis. Love the shape, but will it work?
