CA Plus 10000 Men's Premium Batting Pads

Advantages: Wonderfull willow used to make.
Disadvantages: May be a bit heavy overall.

...This is a beautifull bat,it is made out of grade 1 english willow, which is one fo the best.From the top of the handle to the bottom it is equally weighted, you may ask why this is important? This is important because if your a top order batsmen it is important that you are well balanced when playing a shot. The bat also makes it easy to transfer balance and allows more control for the batsmen. The only downside of this bat is that it is quite heavy, it can way around 3 pounds which is very heavy for if you play at a high level. This bat is used by world class players such as: Inzamam Ul Haq former captain of the pakistan. If you are an attacking top order batsmen then this is the bat for you, but if your a cautious top order batsmen this may not be the choice for you.... Read review

Advantages: perfect weight balance
Disadvantages: must be knocked in very well.

...I have always been a great fan of CA bats. For me they are clearly the best bats, but that is my personal choice because the CA white Gold is Chunkier than your normal Gray Nicholls bat.

Advantages: pick-up, power, distance hitting.
Disadvantages: Rare, premiums in UK very high

...This bat has got to be one of the best bats I have ever played with! Of course every bat one buys is different and I would never recommend a bat of any type to another player, as one bat does not suit all, but the bat ihsan sent me all those years ago when this bat was available was outrageously good. Ihsan bats are made in the sub continent, where a great deal of international players bats are made, so you can be assured that whilst the quality may not be as high as handmade english bats, the price will more than make up for it. So if you could possibly pick one of these up from india or pakistan then the price you pay would be greatly reduced than if you bought it from an english shop who will whack a high premium on these bats. This bat is the stereotypical sub continent bat with a low middle and a large bowed blade that accentuates... Read review
