I remember somebody mentioning Bulldog ST in another topic. Most of the forum batmakers should be able to make you a bat similar to that (and many would have made it previously I believe)

At 2.14 any bat made from top quality willow would look like his. Add a secondary drying process and it becomes even bigger:)

i would disagree and say the bat looks normal sized. with the angle of the pic, it looks bigger due to the face of the bat and edges are not huge

M&H Master, Hammer Beserker ST and ST Samurai. H4L Hattori is very similar too, especially in the larger Monster grade.

Newbery Tour supposedly too, although there are a few small differences with that bat...

I think it is not unreasonable to suggest that even a Tour XL bears absolutely no resemblance to the Tendulkar shape.

in answer to the original question there are many firms which make a Tendulkar shaped bat, but a 2 lbs 14+ bat is tough to use if you aren't used to it.

A lot of the Indian based brands also do specific bats based on ST's shape but I'm not 100% sure on their names  :-[.
