My 1p bat off ebay pictures STORM cricket Gale force
« on: August 11, 2010, 03:49:14 PM »

well best way to describe it is well if there was a grade 5 for looks this would be it but tell you what off a mallett it goes not sound half bad..

had a big discussion with the owner who assures me english willow it look a little dark due to oiling but my god it does play well of the mallett



pictures to follow

size sh
weight 2.10
edges 40mm
pick up  not to bad
looks well dark wood i thought kashmir but they say not and after a few of theese bar stained dark spotted bats before quite happy with it...
will i use it possible in a net then we shall see it might just might get a 20 20 outing

it is not ewni(kashmir willow ) trust me just a low grade english willow and not from cji either ....

makes a change to get something that is not beutiful but it not bad had a net with it went quite well of course not in the same league as my ss ton or chase or laver or mg2 but tell you what it not a bad one had worst from some in grade 1

like the seller did say it is a dog to look at and i agree

I've had a few like this, all Red with tight grains but full of blemishes, it's original Salix rather than Salix Alba.
