Isn't there a law about how much of the bat is allowed to be stickered?
I C C rules are 50% of the Bat only

Although Pietersen is all about himself, awareness of animal brutality gets my vote ahead of the muppet D R E russel

Is that the face of the gator the entire bat?

Anyone suspicious of the motives for this bat? Stinks of self publicising to me.

I don't think so, he's gone without sponsors for a year if it was all about the money he'd have snatched the first offer that came along for the right price

His social media is pretty active with regards to animal conservation so I do think it's a cause he cares about

In this case it does seem to be a noble cause.

so it's the same as a normal business expense; allowable for tax. That means that Saprtan still bear most of the cost themselves

The whole coloured bat thing just looks like a desperate attempt by Spartan to stay relevant in a competitive market. They haven't done anything significant since they lost Clarke, when they were sort of cool! Just my opinion, but I really don't see where they are going in the industry.

Have Spartan ever really been "relevant"? They've thrown a lot of money at sponsoring big names, but have you ever seen anyone use one at club level?
I think I've seen 4 genuine ones (and one horrendous fake) in the last few seasons, and not once did I think 'that bat looks awesome"
