Here you go guys (see pictures attached) - these bats pick up beautifully, mid middle with spine running up the bat to elongate the middle and give the bat excellent balance. This bat pictured weighs 2.9 with 40mm edges and picks up like a 2.8.  We call it the MC profile




Good Luck


Close but not quite mate.

That's some bat Dave, very nice, especially as it can hold an entire room upside down ;)

Just having a chuckle that in the background of Daves computer area there's an abundance of kit, then in the bedroom in the background is yet another bat....

Does this shape make the toe weak? Like the kookaburra t20 bats --- they had issues of toe breakage ..specially if ball quality is not good.

I thought this myself when I was thinking of buying this bat a few seasons back.

I think there's still quite a bit of wood in the toe area. Going back to the old Hunts bats, I don't recall any issues with them breaking and you still see the odd 25-year-plus model in use today.

Not from my experience. I used Hunts bats with the duck bill toe for years and they always got passed out to teammates and never had any problems.

The old mjolinr shape had a similar toe shape too.

No issues with them.

My wife is not happy sharing me with cricket. As people can see not a skinny toe.
