To get the exact same feel look for a SG if visiting in person - very similar profile (a bit chunkier than Kookas otherwise same thing). Depending on the model and year the SGs are made the hitting area can be minutely lower or higher. There are a lot of SG models and lot more range and stock available in India so you will be able to find exact copy. Handles by SG/Kooka feel different (good different)- thin but strong. SG are lot more cheaper than Kookas - not paying for the brand name.

Get another custom made bat made by one of the forum bat makers in the meantime. Maybe it will turn out to be even better. You can never have enough bats :-)

Thanks. I'll take a look at SG.

I'm not sure if Mumbai is the place to be for custom bats. SG, MRF etc all have manufacturing in Meerut and that's near Delhi.

Thanks. My family is based in Mumbai. So Meerut / New Delhi isn't feasible.
