One of my teammates used to have a (now retired) Pro's GN.
It had genuine GN stickers, but also had a CA stickers on the handle and the CA hollogram next to the red GN sticker on the face. Make what you will of that

news from M&H

http://www.millichampandhall.co.uk/nick-compton.html


"I had a very good working relationship with Millichamp and Hall. They have a great team of bat makers and all of their bats are hand made from English willow using the best possible materials. It’s always nice to play with a bat of really quality, and I feel they produce the best bats in the business.”

Could this perhaps be something he's been asked to say after the questions were asked about where M&H bats are actually made?  Doesn't seem like the obvious thing a pro cricketer would say in an interview?!

Wonder how they'll cope making all the extra bats this advertising will bring in their small workshop? ;-)

I love those gloves! I'm sitting on the fence here, I think that it's wrong that they are saying they make everything when they are importing but at the same time I've paid as hefty a sum for a GN custom made Robertsbridge Omega that isn't a patch on my MH09

Junior bats starting at £275, who in there right mind would opt for one of those with all the other cheaper and equally, if not better bats out there

I really like their hybrid glove design also. However, I cannot, in good conscience, buy from M&H again and that is the real shame.

Maybe all manufacturers should make their stickers available to the general public (at a hefty price), still I think people are going to buy them as there is always a weakness for the "genuine" over fake; don't think they would mind if a third party cricket bat with their stickers receives positive reviews.

You used to be able to buy GN stickers from Robertsbridge but a few years ago I contacted GN to buy stickers for my GN bats as I had purchased  stickers previously on a number of occasions and was told they had stop selling to the public as the stickers were being applied to non GN bats.

Another bat with 50mm+ edges! It looks insane, very similar to the Warner spec Kaboom...

Interesting to see what bat Nick uses tomorrow.


As the concaved grays he was using(which we presumed were snickered up m an h) certainly didn't have this profile
