Some of the "players" bats on shelves here in Aus for the 2015/16 were laughable. I won't mention the brand but they were just woeful and sported enormous price tags. I'm not sure who, exactly, falls for this rubbish.

Most of the bats this season has been looking woeful, however one of the prettier bats I've seen this summer was at A-Mart of all places

You can't get 50mm out of a standard cleft not possible with pressing you struggle to get above 42mm from a standard.

Where are all these bats with 50mm edges at 2-11 I don't see many on sale at all if any

Yes true but 50 mm edge bat even with a rare light weight cleft was unheard of some time back. If I look around the threads in last few months most SS bats are coming with 42-44 mm edge and more importantly with no concaving at a decent spine! There shape hasn't changed much but their bats used to be concaved for such weights. Same goes with other big  companies recently. A year back edge size was 35 -38mm to be called massive (without concaving) now it is around 5 to10 mm more with out concaving and with the same spine height. At least this is what I feel.

Players bats or pro bats sounds really good to ears but to be honest if it comes directly from a player himself then you can rely on the overall performance but you just can't rely on what retailers comment to sell their stuff. Some bats look great but what's the point of classifying a bat a pro bat just for its facial looks? For example I have Virat Kohli personal profile made from two makers in India and they look and priced entirely different and I can claim them as a an international pro bats but I know they are not made for him that's for me so may be a custom/customise bat term sounds reliable and more practical to me.

Pics for reference.




So my point is if it comes from the players bag or a very reliable source yes it is a pro bat else everything is business as usual.
