Cricket Bat On Ebay
« on: May 17, 2012, 06:29:20 PM »

£75 for a bat like that sounds well too good to be true, although the seller has 99.3% positive feedback. Bogus or not?

Too good to be true. Would suspect over dried and dodgy handles

i like how its says in the post bat can still be used for longer formats of cricket like test matches.


I'd love to think Cook, Strauss and KP spend a couple hours trawling through ebay looking for their next bat  :)

Pictures aren't great but look like decent bats. Though i am pretty sure they are not Grade 1 Plus.

Yes, lower ends of some brands in Pakistan.

I think some are Ihsanish and some AMish.
