« on: March 16, 2017, 10:23:45 AM »

The seller says it was made for Gary Ballance. I have my doubts, what do you guys say?

No

Nothing like Gary ballance new balance. Balance.......



I've held and seen a few in B3. And the profile is completely different.

It's another case of "sharpie makes it a pro bat"

I very much doubt it. It would contravene ICC regulations on branding.

Mate's got a B3 Ballance and the profile is, as @smilley792 says, different to the one pictured.

Regardless, its a nice bat/shape, so if it's a decent price still a good purchase I guess.
