Its funny how you fall into almost 2 grains camps.

1) About 8-15 well defined straight grains

or

2) You look for as many grains as you can and are only happy with 20+.

Although I have to say that Robbinsons looks a beaut of a bat!

I unfortunately won't be using it any time soon now, cut my index finger quite badly at nets. I'll spare everyone the details but I won't be playing cricket for a few weeks.

Agree kenbiroo, I always look for 8/9 straight grains as I find that these have always been the best performers for me.

I was originally a 10 ish grain man, but my current bat has 20+ and its truly pinging at the moment, I just hope that it lasts like it is all season as its 3/4 heartwood.  So i think I might be a 20+ convert!

8-12 grains is my preference, this often gives a good balence between performance and durability
