Agreed, just the right amount of next years "in" colour. Similar to the Newbery Kudos I suppose, in that the colour is used for trim rather than the main splash itself, but with the GM you don't need a pair of binoculars to work out who made the bat.

Had a little hit today in our net with this bat.

It's an absolute howitzer!

I've never owned or used a GM - my best mate swears by them and those are both stunners, definitely coming round to them...

I picked up a GM Duellist 909 from a charity sale for £15 couple of weeks ago.  Took a chance - very grubby, cleaned it up a bit but not sure if the cracks are lasting damage.  Got it home and it pings off the mallet very well!  Jake; I'll bring it down on the 16th and you can give me an expert opinion.  If its a goer may get it refurbed at GM or B3.

Never gonna be a match bat but may be useful for a net.

The Epic and Six6 look superb - great finishes on them - and that Octane isn't bad either!

I don't care how good a cricket bat is, that's just too much! Scats at 700 or so is enough

I would've thought that having Joe Root endorsing a bat should make its value decrease, but yeah, I don't reckon I'd pay in excess of $900, the bat I have right now cost $700 and That would just about be the limit I'd go to. Who knows in 5-10 years time, $1000 may be the going rate for a top-grade bat. Incredible...

Lol...took me a few mins to get that!!

Question regarding the player editions. Are these made with the same shape and weight as used by the player? How much does this one weigh?

Well, Robin has loved all his previous players bats so much that he's got himself another. They were even kind enough to engrave his initials and his playing number, 12, onto the bat.
