I have been a silent watcher of this forum for a long time and i think its time to give credit to Asad as its due now!
I have always been skeptical of online stores like cricketstoreonline.com but i have found Asad to be exremely reliable and i think i can trust him with my eyes closed after my experience with him!
I purchased a B-52 Newberry from Asad about a year or so ago, i was extremely skeptical initially and the British pound is heavy in terms of US dollars as well. When the bat arrived, i found a crack in it and the ping that i was expecting for an SPS wasnt there but i got assurance from Asad that its a very good bat! I started playing with it, it turned out that the Crack was a cosmetic mark and wasnt in any way going to break but the bat's ping was aweful! I started playing with it in the nets and started knocking it in non-stop...and suddenly the bat came to life...it is now one of the best bat that i have ever owned...too bad that i treated the bat very badly and now i have to find a new one...
Just a few days ago...bought two more bats from Asad, the post office screwed up royally on the delivery but when i opened the package and checked the bat...i couldnt stop smiling...too bad the season is over and i cannot play with them but i cannot wait to play with them...they look and ping like absolute belters...My wife is threatening to burn my 11 other bats though but i dont regret it!
Thanks to Asad!!
