I'm bored so I discovered this,

made by Newbery or just a hammer edge sheet?

Also Salman Butt's

I agree,

It makes sense if they are made by Newbury for the pros as they both are sponsorsed by Adidas. Therefore it makes logical sense.

i would have good money on neither not being newbery

I have a friend who sells all his 'own brand' bats with Hammer Edges on them.... they're all made by Sareen

...not claiming that these bats are Sareen, just that in some people's eyes Hammer Edge are the best scuff sheets

Slightly off topic, how do you reckon Sachin keeps his 20-odd years old pads so white? Do you think he cleans them meticulously, or just paints them regularly?

Bats do not seem to be Newbery as the shoulders of the bats are very square (mostly Asian brands). Most english brands have curved shoulders.

But I have heard that Newbery have made bats for Sachin. Well which batmaker would not like to make bats for the little master.

slightly off topic but i think satchin is also wearing the new adidas spikes for next year

I was thinking the same

I was under the impression  that he has tried most bats?
So are we to believe that he only ever uses Adidas bats these days? Or are we to believe that he changes bats more often that he changes his underwear? Or possibly somewhere in between?
I would guess that he has used them in the past, but not sure what he uses at the moment! Only the Master himself will know!

Sachin buys them from the factory, half the Pakistani squad are using the same bats.

[Colesy]

Direct from his supplier's factories or Newbery's?

[Talisman]

Direct from the factory where Newbery bats are made.

[Colesy]

Ok, thanks

I assume that the Pakistan team went to Newbery once they got here, and had a lovely choice of clefts?
