Uzi Sports shop visit
« on: January 18, 2014, 06:19:59 PM »

Popped down to visit Asad at Uzi Sports today

If I'm honest, I could have spent a lottery win in there!
The bat choice is staggering, a day spent looking at bats alone,is a must..the Uzi bats were a particular favourite that are worth a visit to appreciate them.
There's everything a cricketer needs, all in stock and at a good price

It was nice to meet such a genuine,helpful and knowledgable retailer who loves cricket

Many thanks Asad, for allowing me to 'bend your ear' for a couple of hours!
I will be back soon for a 2.9 Uzi pro bat

I know what you mean. I went in there to pick up a couple of balls and a new grip. Ended spending 1.5 hours there talking with Asad. Cracking range of bats in the shop and out the back.

I was lucky I took the missus, cos if I had been on my own, I would have hammered the credit card!

Since ur visit I have sent around 15 bats to players in Pakistan and I have good stock of the similar bats in stock. Plenty for you to go through. I showed few to Mark today who visited us. I told him him that you are planning to come at the end of the month so he may come along. Any other forum member is most welcome. Simon can you plz let others know which day r u planning to come. I also believe Pete Hosk is also coming

Special bat? Bit of an understatement there
If you can't score runs with one of those pro bats, it's time to give up!

I keep reading on this forum about limited,limited special willow etc, getting scarcer, , ,that's because Asads had it all made into these Pro bats!ha

Each to their own I suppose, regarding looks,grains,profile etc, but I defy anyone not to be blown away with the feel of this willow when you bounce a ball on it!

100 not out

Asad Bhai
Can you please advise on the best method to send bats to Pakistan, we have had several enquiries including from professional players.

Thanks

Some of the bats have been sent with few players who were going back to Pakistan and rest through my brother who works in a Courier Company in London.

Popped into Uzi sports today , ,another quick visit,that turned into two hours!!

Took a good friend with me to look at Asads stock of bats, which proved to be fatal for my friends wallet!
He picked up a truly stunning Bas vampire, tendulkar shaped, , ,at 3lb, ,
The pick up was a good couple of pounds less,

The look of the bat was nothing particularly impressive, no 25 arrow straight grains or owt like that
But, and a huge but, ,the performance was ridiculous , the sweet spot started just off the toe,and I mean just off the toe, ,and was still good just under the v of the spline!!!
I suppose I will never judge a bat on looks alone again

I don't know how long Asad spends going through bat stocks to 'find' these bats, ,?

Many thanks again Asad

I've never even picked one up before!

The ping/sweet spot was unreal, , ,and the pick up for the weight,was really good
My mates from Somerset, and is a die hard M&H fan, so you can imagine how good this bat was, for him to buy it

The gloves are in Thursday, , I've seen pictures,and they look very nice.

Thanks for your visit Mark, your timing of the visit was perfect as that was the only time I had some free since morning. We had one of the busiest day, sold 8 Uzi Pro bats  and a lot of other equipment.
As I said previously performance is guaranteed on our pro bats as every bat has been picked 100% on performance rather than the looks.
Our 2014 softs are arriving on Thursday and I will post photos later today in a separate topic
Any queries, plz pm or email
