CA Somo English Willow Bat

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. I find that this bat is perfect for my style of Aggressive play, it is a bullky bladed bat which also encourages the ball to fly of the middle with minimum effort. this is a great benefit for the wristy cricketers who concentrate on snappy shots rather than defensive play. the weight distribution in this bat is second to none, from the handle down to the bottom edge there is an equal weight. this is extremeley important to have in a bat which is not made in a very slimline design. the equality in the weight enables you to time your drive shots with particular ease. i have found with previous CA bats that there was always more weight near the bottom...

Disadvantages: Absolutely None!

...The Fusion Super Best is without doubt the best cricket bat I have ever used, accompanied with the best service available on the market. Fusion are a small company, who hand make all of their bats from the finest English Willow. They are one of the only companies who use Grade 1+ willow for their top of the range bat, which is usually only reserved for professionals. Fusion will customise ever single aspect of your bat, and you can even try out the bat at their indoor nets. Unfortunately I was unable to try this, but I have heard that the facilities are top quality. Their aftersales services are second to none, and there is not a single aspect of the bat which has not been excellent. Whywaste your money on large manufacturers, when you can get a better quality bat for a lower price and a truely enjoyable experience.... Read review
