You'd think that SPS and whatever the next best grade is would be the English made ones? Maybe one more under that, not sure how many grades they actually do?

Yes, us obsessives on here might be able to work it out. But it's unclear to Joe Public. Deliberately so, I might suggest?

I thought I'd be cheeky and get an answer from the horse's mouth .So I emailed to ask what grades are UK made just clear up their murky description, because I was thinking about purchasing a players grade but 280 seems a bit much if it's an imported grade 2. Just waiting for a response .I will pass on the response if I get one.

Don't think that is cheeky! You should know where your product comes from.

Take it the prices will still continue to increase for their bats

Sad reality! Newbery will continue to charge us same if not more for these bats.

Assuming Joe Public would care I guess. The wording is clear for anyone interested enough to look. I wonder why it has been open season on M and H since news broke, yet with Newbery, we have been gently warned already?

I don't think you'll get a straight answer

You could always snaffle up a 100% UK made bat from certain forum sponsors 😁

At present All Newbery bats we have are all UK made

Did someone not find the import list/duty for m&h and GN? Same not possible here

Most brands now don't include models in the Indian export docs these days so hard to find.

As I understand SF are a lot more involved. Perhaps TK may do his own brand?

Also - Newbery were seemingly in some financial strife last year. A change in batmaker could mean a reduction in costs.

[Bwcc]

They've introduced new lower grade bats this year maybe they are the ones that aren't TK made?

[Loc1215]

I actually got a response to email I sent asking what grade was made where.They said that the sps and pro are made in England and 5* G4 were hand finished .No mention about the players grade though the one I was actually interested in .

Looks like aldred is making for newbery

Newbery posted this on FB.



And then someone replied in the comments that it's one of Paul's


Paul also was the first one to like Newbery's post .

He does make quality bats . So good luck to @Aldred Cricket Bats

As long as Newbery customers wanting 2.8 are happy to be told 2.12 will suit them better.
