on a side note, got a slazenger v900 youths, good bat?
imo its awesome, so light, so strong :D
I've never seen/felt one, so, how is it's pickup? Size (Harrow I assume) What grade willow?
I have a Newbery Uno, which is just :o :o



End of over 41 (16 runs) - Feeling Sheepish(216-3) RR 5.27
A. Linton 77 (76b) , R. Kothari 62 (75b) , D. Cuppens 6-0-43-0
Linton just went crazy! WOOO!
english willow (i think) size 5, im a midget (notiterally, im small). Ask luigi. Good weight and size, and i smack it around, so good for me, and it has a good sweet spot :D

roo boys!

I've got the same bat as Watson really, just not the Players version. Mine is Grade 1 premium unbleached English willow 8) Absolutely love it!

The yellow one right BB? A kid in my rep team last year had that I think...nice bat :)

You should be able to tell, if it is low grade Kashmir it will have a pig skin covering.

English willow will just be wood and will have a nice straight grain.

I have the same as you RB but I haven't used it in a while...

Came back to the game to see this by Sreed:
42.3 W Sreedhar to Gladigau : Wide, but he's dragged it on! He was looking to flay that away through the covers, but a lack of footwork has caused his downfall and the off stump is disturbed.
P. Gladigau b. K. Sreedhar 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
42.2 W Sreedhar to McGrath : Bowled him!! That's the end of McGrath, excellent delivery from Sreedhar, right in the blockhole, had no chance of hitting that. McGrath's innings comes to an end.
N. McGrath b. K. Sreedhar 5 (6b 0x4 0x6) SR:83.33

And Then:
44.3 W Sreedhar to Mukahanana : Oh he's been burgled! Mukahanana has left the gate wide open and Sreedhar has cleaned him out! All that's left is leg stump performing its finest impression of Pisa's famous tower!
C. Mukahanana b. K. Sreedhar 5 (11b 0x4 0x6) SR:45.45


1 more wicket needed.

roo boys!

Try and count the grain. (the lines running vertically) on the face of the bat. This will tell you how good a quality bit of wood the bat is.

Good bat hey BOOMZ?

Nice 8)
Linton out for 88. A PB but I blame the site maintenance. Someone always goes out during maintenance :(
Same willow as me.

No players use my Uno sadly :( It is a premium bat though 8)
You should of seen how the coach was drooling when I whipped it out for the first time at training ;D

Hand crafted premium english willow, natural finish, beautiful pickup and I can block the length of a cricket ground of decent paced bowlers (out of the middle)

45.3 W Tilyard to Heather : I want to say that shot rocked my world, but it didn't. Instead it rocked the stumps and Heather.
W. Heather b. P. Tilyard 50 (80b 4x4 0x6) SR:62.50

Just after he got his 50 up ;D.

End of over 46 (2 runs) - benjy251090(176-10) RR 3.83
S. Raiteri 1 (2b) , P. Tilyard 7.3-0-29-1

Not a large target so I'm happy. Hopefully can get there faster with 2 of my regular Bats missing.

44.3 W Burgess to Gorman : [catch] Gorman drives at a wide ball, but only succeeds in giving an easy catch to MacLeod at point.
S. Gorman c T. MacLeod b. A. Burgess 18 (21b 1x4 0x6) SR:85.71
