I'm looking to spend a maximum of about £130. My old Woodworm Flame has cracks everywhere so I might not get another Woodworm. Any suggestions please

  1. Best bat is the one that is made of willow found in Greenland.

    I don't know much companies but Puma is one of them.


  2. go for a SG bat with white willow. its weight should be from2.4 to 3 kgs.

  3. GET A HANDMADE SALIX.

    They are aorund £140, there is a handmade factory somewhere around Kent. They are amazing. I am only 13 but I play for Kent, I'd only get a good bat if you play all the time. If you play on the one off get a good but not an amazing bat. So yeh, if you live near kent in england type in Salix into google and i predict that it will proply come up..10 points?

    Hope i helped :]

  4. Well known makes are usually more expensive. Good, top of the range Gray Nicholls and Gunn and Moores cost well over £200. I would suggest looking at smaller bat makers where the bats are cheaper, because they cant sell on the name, you will then be able to buy a top of the range bat with higher quality willow. The ball really comes off better. Small Bat firms will also offer a one year breakage guarantee. Search for hand made English bat or Hand made English Bat makers. I used to be sponsored by ACE bats in Elland. This was a great bat with customised pick up etc and boy, if you hit the ball you certainly got the rewards. However unfortunately Ace bats are now shut. But it was a great firm when it was open.

  5. They're all the same... Just the stickers are different. Trust me. My uncle owns a factory in India that makes cricket bats for County, Gray-Nicolls and GM. They are all the same bats but the stickers at the end are different

  6. Gray Nicholls were the one's the rich kids had at our school...

  7. Grade 1 English willow.

    These bats are only good for professionals.

    Grade 2 or 3 would be good enough for anyone else.

    top range bat G1 willow would be over 400 AUD.You can get a decent bat for around 150 to 250 AUD.

    Brand names just help to differentiate the pick up ,weight etc of a bat.

  8. id say get an MRF just look it up on the net 130 should be enough

    and you cant go wrong with a GM Purist
