Cool - will keep going then fella!

He's not on great form. But when he is, he is still a brilliant all-rounder. Although he has to lose the beard! :)

more due to the fact he is a disgraceful excuse for a human being and a massive cheat!

im thinking more about scuffing up a good length with his studs during a bomb scare, or biting cricket balls to gain an unfair advantage. I could go on, hate the bloke! cant believe he is still around now

You're absolutely right there! Am hoping that this is a gun of a bat when I try it out at nets.
It's certainly big and meaty enough!

As per Buzz, my larger coin has arrived thanks to ebay - just under the 40mm so ideal for those beefier edges!
So to celebrate this, I managed to take a couple more pics of bats previously posted in this topic with the new coinage!

So a few pics of the Newbery TT, Blueroom Swell, Matrrixx Rareblue and the Lekka T20 brute will follow.

Great to see the BES at work - those really are some PHAT edges.

I see one coin wasn't enough!!
