Wouldn't surprise me if he'd had a few sticks from them as they'd be his "local" bat maker I guess.
I beleive it may have been you who mentioned it previously, but a couple of the England ODI players use Kippax made bats too

Kippax isn't local to Sheffield. Notts is closer. Don't you mean England ODI playerSS or have you made the point now?  :D

If they're using Kippax bats it would be stupid to make that point, as neither M&H or SS have anything to do with it...

We don't know that. But it does seem improbable.

Well, Kippax is pretty local to that.

Indeed. And if Joe played more than one game for Yorkshire last season, I'd be inclined to agree with you.

Okay, it's unlikely that Joe Root has had bats made by Kippax because he doesn't spend enough time in Yorkshire?

What a daft thread.

No, I was disputing the assertion that Kippax is his local batmaker.

M&H bats are amazing! Better than many on this forum.

Also, that M&H thread is nothing but BS.

does it really matter who makes his bats? he is getting paid to use NB stickers. that much is contractual. beyond that he is free to pick whichever one of 100s of bats get delivered to him from different manufacturers.

we also know the list of possible manufacturers all over the world...i'm sure they've each sent him at least a few. so....maybe lock the thread? ;)

I think it is often forgotten that a lot of top players actually prefer Indian bats.

He still has them made at GM. It's a thicker-edged version of the Mana which he has been using since the beginning of 2015. Since then the shape hasn't changed. Previous to this his bats were a similarly chunkier version of the Six6 (personally I prefer this profile. In fact so much so that I actually own one of his bats from 2014).
New Balance retail bats are made by Sareen. Millichamp and Hall as far as I know have absolutely nothing to do with new balance. A cursory inspection of one of their bats would clear this up as they are vastly different in many ways.
