Great Profile, but although you say you are not too worried about looks I think for 250 Laver would come up with something slightly better looking with the same results performance-wise!

main part of a bat is how it goes. if they are saying its a performer not a looker might be an absolute belter?

Mike - don't succumb to the stickers. It wont be better than the bats you already have!!

And there we have it. If you want a top performing bat why not save yourself some money and order a SAF or H4L? For £250 you would get something pretty from them too.

I realise the exchange rate is not their fault but it does seem that Laver play on their prices. Because they are that much more expensive they hope punters like us will assume they will be better too.

It isn't the ugliest bat I've seen, but you're paying about £100 for some nice stickers.

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.

I have no idea, you will have to look it up on the Laver website!
