Laver and Wood I'm guessing don't have the longer handles in stock so their blade is 19" compared to the Mongoose's 15".

Similar but not an exact copy, with the science and work that's gone into the original Mongoose I'd choose that rather than an attempt at an imitation.

With all these different bats being brought into the game i think the game of cricket is getting worse as the technology gets better cricket is a traditional game wich in my eyes should be played with normal equipment.

They both just look like fielding bats to me.

I made one on Saturday it does funnily enough look like a fielding bat, it caused a bit of a stir at the club and almost everyone held the bat lower down the handle....  Not used it yet, Nets tonight, I'll see if the splice stays in  ;D
