Hi guys, went a bit wild, and decided to go for one of these in the Cricmart sale! I've always admired Sangakarra, who is probably my favourite Sub-Continental batsman alongside Dravid. Again, pics first, and edited description and specs later.
It currently weighs 2lb 11.4oz, so it will be around 2.12 when finished with a scuff, shoe goo and oil on the back. Heavier than I wanted, but the balance and pick up and ping are superb. The edges are 41mm, with the shoulder being 14mm and the toe being 23mm. Big bat all over, not the biggest for the weight, but certainly not a small bat!
It weighs 2lb 11.4oz with the readjusted handle, which is a bit heavier than I was hoping for. There was a bit of a mix up, and turned out the bat was an ounce and a bit heavier than stated, which Swat offered . However, the balance felt good and a little bit different, and I had been wanting one for ages, so I may just stick with it! (Also had just cracked my match bat SS badly, so was looking for something special to replace such a lovely bat) Service was great with Swat from Cricmart, who is a great guy to chat with too. It just felt a more friendly transaction when compared with OLS, which is something that I look for when dealing with retailers/batmakers. It just gives reassurance that things will turn out good!
