I've only had Pakistani bats so far and this GN 50+ is a very nice addition to my limited collection of bats. Not saying that the local bats aren't good, but this Aussie bat is on another level all together.

Even my local retailer who only stocks local bats was in awe when he saw this.

Have used the bat for 10+ games now and its an absolute beast. Even the back-foot punches to long-off and long-on against spin bowling makes me giggle. The bat weight was 2.14 when it arrived. It is now slightly north of 3.2 with 2 additional grips and 2 scuff sheets. Guys if you can wield a bat this heavy, don't think twice. I'll admit I don't feel too comfortable playing shots square of the wicket even though I'm a pretty strong guy.

I was so impressed with the bat that I ordered an xp80 and have let go off my other match bats.

Oh well, the kookaburra scuff sheet that I ordered with it didn't really stick to the blade after oiling. I went to the local store and got a nice thick sheet but it was smaller than the usual scuff sheets and didn't cover the whole hitting area.

@Ajdal Good to see someone finally using it in matches.. I still have to gather courage to use it in nets first. A copy of my GN50+ from B3 is on the way.

Scored a hundred with the bat in my last match.

Why get a copy when you have the real thing

Well done a ton in a 20 over game is a brilliant effort.
