cost me 4.8k

All the bats the dealer had was on the heavier side .i.e about 1250+ gms. This was the only 1 having around 1200gms..

I was taking a call between SS Heritage, BDM Fire and SG Cobra star

SS Heritage had awesome pickup. It was only 1150gms, but the compromise was that the volume behind the sweet spot was not so good.

The cobra star. is a good balance between pick up and profile.
 
Very Very misleading Title :D Congrats, we now want a youtube link of u hitting a six with this!
 
good price. I used to have 2-3 bats when I was in school, college. I like BAS Vampire the most. I even ported GM bat and Kokaburra bat but they're much light for my liking so sold them up... outdoor sport much much much, much raised to the power 1000 times better than sitting on computer....

awesome buy, congrats
 
Nice. :D

Had a couple of SG bats when I was in my school days. An el-cheapo Cover Drive and another one which I dont recollect the name.
 
We also had 5-6 SG bats in our team... Especially that SG Nexos or something I don't really remember.. Off Course it was of Indian Willow.. We never ever bothered spending 4k-5k for bats.. We were getting whole cricket set + snacks in that :bleh:, we were totally LOW BUDGET TEAM (damn low man)
 
Thnx guys!!

i checked out some kookaburra bats...they were priced similar but are of a lower grade willow..and most importantly SG,SS and BDM makes those bats..

and yea outdoor sports are so relaxing(even though it takes out the last bit of energy in u) after a 9-6 desk job...complete satisfaction after a good session

There are many different weights available for this bat.
If ur playing early > u need a lighter bat
if playing late > u need a heavier bat

and trust me the weight is the most important factor here. I could feel the difference between a 1150gms and a 1250 gms bat..100 gms looks too little , but actually they make a hell lotta difference. very important to get a bat that suits u.
