For sure Keeley charging the best price they can is understandable, but it's not a situation that's without losers - boosting prices because you can still pulls the whole market upwards, which isn't great for the end consumer. Easy for a smaller maker to justify high prices when Keeley is sending them out the door at £800, and even necessary at times as really the only thing separating two similar bats from different brands is the branding. Sell yours cheaper and many consumers will view them as inferior products.

I guess the real losers would be us bat badgers who would see our expenditure rise significantly… it’s probably neither here or there to the ‘average club cricketer’ who only (sensibly) changes their bat every few years 😅

Everyone would feel it, but there are cheaper options. As with most things. I'm looking at new irons for golf as mine are getting on a bit, paid £800 for them 8 years ago and the equivalent ones now are £1300. Will I pay it? Maybe, but if I wanted there are options for £400. Can't say I'm happy about it though! 😂

Surely you want a thin (top) edge and no offset. 😂

Specs is probably way more relevant in golf tbf 😂 Although if Taylor Mades promise of a 17 yard gain with every driver they've brought out every year for the past 10 years we're true, and you'd upgraded every year. You'd be hitting it probably 420 yards off the tee by now! Marketing can really suck amateur sports people in.

Just watching the highlights and see the Ahmed is using TOn kit so no more Pro Ahmed profiles then. I know he is ok with the bat but seems weird that TON I assume offered £££ to sponsor him

Exciting young player who has marketable appeal to the Asian community who, anecdotally, buy more TON bats?

They sell plenty of Kohli pro profiles so not sure it’ll stop them.

At that early level of career

How does it work … 20 k per annum 1 year rolling contract, or would it be more lucrative ?

Keeley may knock a few quid off on Rehan Ahmed profiles. Only the £699.99 instead of the £800.
May even throw in free postage too if we’re lucky

Thought they might want to keep him

Keeley isn’t SS Ton money wise but would have thought they would have wanted to keep the young Asian star for international tv limelight

Doesn't matter what they want, they can't match the financial power of someone as massive as SS/TON.
