Ugh SS! Such fantastic bats, such dreadful overbranding. The SS on it's own could be iconic - I wish they would do a minimalistic set of stickers!

Agree with you Fattus they go overboard with the stickers on the back, I like the minimal stickers but the bat more than makes up for it.

cam66 i think there was an offer and it was GBP 240 delivered.

kal if you are apprehensive try them for soft goods, not a lot can go wrong with soft goods. Also ask for what is available in stock as that can be delivered within a few days, if you ask for something special it may take up some time (which has happened to me in past, took 2 weeks to arrive).

Mates glad you all liked the bat I am eager to take them to nets and see how does it go on the pitch.

How'd SS get the bat to those specs?
It looks such a full profile for that weight

Think it was £19 for a pair of keeping gloves, keeping pads and 3 pairs of batting gloves, so about £15 at a guess.

I think it is one of the top grades available (in India) from SS just next to TON Reserve. In UK they come with 3 grades I believe in Gladiator Players, Pro & Elite, I guess it would be in Elite grade as it is advertised as Grade 1++. Most of the UK made pro grade bat are sold higher than GBP 250 I believe. I was about to buy L&W Special reserve in about the same price but went with this Gladiator finally.

Kal indeed I am very happy with the bat, was surprised it was delivered a day before my Birthday, didn't anticipate & expect that, so was happy. My wife isn't with me in Singapore atm so were less complaints from her as well :-)

The one sold in UK are traditinal curve toe this one  seems more square. Is there  a reason  or is it just SS being inconsistent.

SS - Indian Market
TON - UK Market

**Due to lawsuit with Stuart Surridge

Would make sense to tailor the shapes for the individual markets if you are already forced to change the branding.
