Bats / Best shop stock in the southeast area?
« Last post by strang on Today at 09:15:03 AM »
Looking for a shop that carries quite a few bats to pickup in person.
Where in Kent or London tube system has a decent range for bat buying day trip?
Sorry if this is in wrong section, didn't know where to put it, feel free to move (still getting used to layout of this site).

Gunn & Moore / GM bat grading, 303, 404, 606, 707, 808 etc - where do the players bats sit?
« Last post by strang on Today at 09:09:25 AM »
Thinking of buying a new GM diamond and wanted to know where in the range the player's/best bang for the buck, bats sit?
In other words, not interested at this point in the presidential hair/26 straight grains of mid life crisis sexiness, just where in the range offers the best performance? Ping? Handle? Obviously I would like to get the best performing bat at the cheapest price, so where in the range is worth starting for performance? Asking your venerable knowledge as may end up buying unseen on the net.

number 3 probably affects numbers 1 and 2.

I never drink on a Friday so probably not. The post match celebrations were the problem!

3rd umpire should have seen all of this and ruled, not out, he only looked at Buttler been outside the line! Bad umpiring!

Its disgusting. He had no intention of bowling that ball

How anyone can read and interpret the rules and still think that is acceptable, then your probably a massive bell end as well. That's just not cricket, end of. He has deceived Buttler, I dont see it being to dissimilar to fake fielding, which is now 5 penalty runs. He has pretended to bowl the ball, to gain an unfair advantage and trick a batsmen. As everyone with a brain has said, Buttler was in his crease a long time and would have been upon normal ball release. To make it even worse hes come out and tried to claim it was never planned. Bore off Ashwin, you are a cheat, you have history of this kind of thing, and what an example set as captain to the rest of your side and millions watching. BCCI wont act on it, hes one of their golden boys. Whole thing stinks

That picture clearly shows that Ashwin is a cheat. He clearly looks about to release the ball and Buttler still behind the line. What next? Will it be ok if the bowler continues his action, but release it so that it goes backwards into the stumps behind! Would that be fair?

Exactly that's what I felt when I saw this, his intention wasn't to bowl a ball!
