About the only thing that would tempt me into another Keeley would be the option to have a thicker than standard handle so interesting and dangerous to know that's possible!

Asked for a double bind, its akin to an older GM handle now i'd say.

Just noticed that we now have a "Keeley Cricket" section in the sub boards - excellent!

Has anyone purchased any new Keeley for this upcoming season?

Here are mine...

I've got one that's now too light for me that I'm looking to find a new home for, Its currently 2.7.0 dead with a grip is someone is in the market for a lightweight with a similar profile to the above.

I'll try and get some pics up in the Sale section shortly as i cleaned it up even though its not had much use.

Thanks to this forum - I was introduced to brands I would never of heard of before. Last year my son moved to an academy sized bat which we got from a brand he'd been using for a number of years, but we paid Adult size bat price for - he's involved in CAG and Club so we have 2 bats for him. Due to price I went to Keeley and paid half what I paid from the other brand which was a benefit for us - no issues with quality as the other brand is also fantastic (just cost) - we also popped into Keeley over the summer while we went over to Brighton for a couple of days.

Anyway just got his new bats, Both are G1 Superior models. The academy size has the Worx stickers and is 2lb 7oz and the full size bat is 2lb 8oz. He's going to be 14 soon and growing and we didn't want to be caught out mid season hence got the Adult size in.

Anyway photos are below.

So I made an error on my last visit and headed over to the old Newbery side of the “shed” for a bit of a trip down memory lane and to enjoy the Cadbury purple stickers. Whilst there I spotted an old Uzi, I’ve always loved the Uzi, my first shorter blade bat, got me my first senior 50 and 100.

An all round brilliant shape, middle a bit high for some I imagine but for me it was spot on and picking one back up just brought all the great memories back of playing the game as a kid. More fun, no other worries and just spending hours in the nets until the sun was going down, or those first senior games when you weren’t really sure what was going on and 50 overs felt so so long.

I got chatting with Tim about it and asked him how he would make it again, if he made one today. (This was when I made the error). He explained, I liked the sound of it and asked him to give it a go whenever he had the chance as I would probably take a modern version of my dearly beloved Uzi.

Have waited a fair while but here it is… an absolute monster and I am made up with it.

2.10ish
3/4 inch shorter blade
“Dhoni” style (more like classic style) round toe.







Btw if anyone wants to join the petition for Keeley to bring a Cadbury purple sticker to their Worx and Superior ranges please let me know. It didn’t work on the day but I don’t intend to stop asking them for it 🤣

Proper BMF that is @ch1p  - I don't get bat envy too often, but often for the bats you get, I make an exception. 😂

What a bat @ch1p, such a nice side profile and really nice to look at. Good amount of chunk yet still elegant and sleek!

That is lovely.

If I hadn't just got two from him myself , their phone would be ringing for another order. Is there any narrowing around the top third?
