3 years ago I was on holiday in India and went to a cricket shop. I asked for the best 3 bats he had for about 150 quid each and he pulled out 3 lovely SS bats., I didnt buy anything as I was convinced that they were fake TON branding and scribbled on by a kid, which they were probably were. I realized a year later that these were top bats and probably handmade from top performing willow but I thought they were fake nevertheless.
The best looking bats that I remember vividly were all BDM but I didnt buy them as I didnt like the stickers... another massive mistake on my part.
