End of this year start of next. They're in development.

There's a few sets of pads floating around with our logo's at the moment, but they're just interim pads for the pro's to use.

Can't wait to see Dwayne Smith use one of them. He's known as a big hitter, isn't he?

he was my club teams pro !

Sorry, but I think the pricing of the Mongoose will mean they don't get huge.  I mean, £159 for a bat that's half the size of a normal bat is a bit too much, and most people will be buying it without actually trying one, so £159 is a little too much, while at £100, I think they'd get a lot of sales.

For £159 you get a bat made to your spec and handmade. A Mongoose is made from a full size cleft and takes longer than a normal bat to make due to the complex handle. The uptake for the bat has been huge and the waiting list was over a month at launch.

When you say made to my spec, how far do I get it to made to my own spec?

Yes, and you'd get it if we had that type of willow in the right grade. If not you'd get the closest to it.

Just out of interest, what would you say the benefit in using the Mongoose would be for a teenager still looking to hone his technique?

More value for your shots, meaning you don't have to hoick across the line or into cow corner to hit 4's and 6's. You can do this with a cover drive etc thanks to the extra power.

Quick update:

Signed Mohammad Ashraful who used the CoR3 today, scored 20 although hit a nice 6 on the bats debut. Also have signed another pretty well known player who will be announced as soon as his contract ends on the 1st Nov.
