Best cricket bat in 2008?

Question

what is the best senior cricket bat this year for under $500 in Australia

Answer 1

Well that depends on your style of play and your size, as all bats have different styles they are geared for. If you are a club player then i wouldnt worry to much about the style of bat, but how it feels when you pick it up.

1st) Can you play a straight drive with your bottom hand only whilst maintaining a straight bat? If so then the bat isn't to heavy.

2nd) Does it feel right for YOU, if so then look at the willow grabe, 1+ being the best.

I personally use the replica of Ricky Pontings Kahuna and i think it is amazing, you will easily get one well under the $500 mark and the middle is spot on. I truly recommend this bat to you.

Cheers
