...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 ...
...i have found with previous CA bats that there was always more weight near the bottom of the bat rather than an equal one, this would lead to alot of edges and miss timed shots. if you play enough cricket you know the importance of timing a ball correctley especially on the front foot. i have actually had two of these CA white gold bats, the first one i learnt that because i decided to use it straight out of the box for a match its didnt do me any ...

...the back has a large slazenger panther which runs the length of the bat - this is black and has slazenger written all over it in shinny writing. It was handmade in England of natural willow and features a short handle design; but as I mentioned earlier you can buy bats in virtually any size.

...As cricket makes go Slazenger a relatively new - they haven't been around for as long as Readers or Gray-Nicholls for example.

I certainly have no complaints with the bat the I purchased and would definately buy a Slazenger again. ... Read review

...of all the Puma bats is so high, this is like a high grade bat from any other producer. The Ballistic is characteristic for its thick edges and enhanced sweet spot, making it a bat for players of power rather than precision.

...is that it has a low middle. For people who don't know what that means, it is the part of the bat where the ball shud be aimed to be hit with as it is where the most wood is present. The reason why this isn't good is because pitches in uk are more bouncy and u will usually want a bat with a higher middle to make best contact.
