I don't no. But there's nothing "T/20" about it, it's just missing a chunk from the back.

I'm pretty sure it is a copy of the slaz shape, puma also have a similar shape and so do woodworm now......i wonder if they all come out of the same factory?

The Puma Iridium 20/20 looks exactly the same profile wise

Pretty sure they are all preceded by the Kookaburra Bubble, taking mass away from the toe of the bat to raise the centre of mass and improve pick-up.  If the middle is low enough you shouldn't lose much in terms of bat power in the right place for English club wickets and 20/20 style straight hitting/slogging.  But looking at this bat, it seems to have gone a shade too far.
