My Laver and Wood Reserve. It's not the thickest, but it is very light and has a fantastic pick-up.

My H4L Hattori 5* (Should have been LE, cheers Matt) with the MH Puma stickers. Goes like (No Swearing Please) off a shovel. My perfect bat really, weight, profile, and it's all middle.

Dave calls it the Bat of Bats haha, I'll never sell it though

Joker, Black Cat Shadow, Thruxton SPS and MMi super Premium. These are the bats I always come back to. The Black Cats are absurdly good. The Thruxton hits just as hard but is a harsher feel. It is also better on the crossbat shots than the Shadow. The MMi willow is not as good as the Black Cats but the design more than bridges the gap. If only Black Cat could make an MMi....

A Champ one, thats all I know! Got it off Hit4Six on here for £70, took the Adidas Pellara stickers off, put some Incurza ones on and away I went, that bat pinged like mad. A teammate hit a double hundred not out with it!

Newbery Merlin 8 star (the one with counterbalance handle). A hand me down from my brother who was sponsored at the time. 20+ grains, only lasted a couple of seasons, but was superbly balanced and a gun.  That was over 20 years ago !

A lance klusener surridge. Around the 2004 champions trophy time. Spent a lot of time bowling at them in the nets during their stay. In return  He gave me a surridge zulu. Top bloke. Bit heavy but a top piece of willow.

My RK Custom has to be the best bat i've owned so far. Followed by my Slazenger V360 County and GM Luna 606. All three have been good to me but unfortunately the Luna was too heavy and I got rid of it. Can't get my hands on one at 2.8lbs now! :(

My current salix bat is the best I've ever played with, it's only a small thing, but it pings allright!

Bowled at them 5 or 6 times during their brief stint in the tournament.  As well as the pakistanis and americans.
Was a good summer. We had rory kleinveldt playing for us at the time so he gathered some bowlers together to bowl at net sessions and on game days. Bowled at the likes of gibbs kallis klusener pollock.
