redback showing in every reply!!! It seems quality wins out everytime so far!!! And no one other than myself has put a major manufacturer in their entry. No Gray Nicolls, Kookaburra etc. So just who doe buy the Kookaburra Ricky ponting Kahuna then!???

half the people in the real world away from this forum remember the forum is only a tiny smigin of the cricketing world.

i suspect nobody off the custom bats sells anywere near 1000 bats per season maybe a few of the stockiest might but i doubt weather the custom bat makers do

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.
