Next seasons kit has started to arrive!
« on: September 16, 2014, 10:55:56 AM »
And so it begins.
I've decided to try out Indian bats this time, so ordered two TONs direct from Indian.
They were posted Friday 12th and arrived today, absolutely excellent service!

Two new bats, one a natural finish, the other had the edges and back coated. (Match bat and a net/wet bat, excellent!!)

I'll let the pictures do the talking!
















I'll update this as more kit arrives. Only softs left but loving the Orange I bought.
The super power may be painted, but is perfect as my net/wet bat so I'm very happy with both!
Only thing is the stickers weren't brilliantly applied but if that's all I can find to moan about I've done well!!

Not the best looking SS bats I have to say, how is the response and who did you order it from.

I only paid £120 posted for the pair, so wasn't expecting a pair of Worldies to be honest!
They've got my preferred number of grains and are made from English willow so I'm happy with them.

Not tapped them up yet as I don't have a cricket ball at work to test them out!  :(

And I honestly don't know who I ordered them from! Was shown pictures of them, I paid and my contact sorted the rest for me haha.

The faces have character which I like. Not a fan of the painted bit though

I bought a ton heritage last year. Lots of concaving. But it turned out to be a great bat.

hope these serve you just as well bud.

Not the best looking faces, but both have lovely shapes. For that price I'd say they'll serve you well!

Cheers mate

I like a bit of character on the faces too so was more than happy to buy these.

As for the painted bit, usually not something I'd go for, but I'm not overly fussed as it's my net/wet bat.

Having waved the two round the orange feels a bit lighter than the Super Power.
No idea what either of them weigh and I plan to keep it that way, they feel nice in my hand so what they actually weigh is irrelevant!

Because nowhere else stocks SS...

Would love to know how you came to this conclusion. Is that because they're Sunridges bats, or because I said they were direct from India??

Well I came accross as a bit aggressive re-reading that... Sorry mate.

Should have possibly said:
What's the giveaway??

(I genuinely don't know so they may well be)

My parcels have all arrived!  :D

Pictures to follow when I'm not at work (and possibly a new thread doing a review if you're relly lucky!)
