This was, unbelievably, my first Kookaburra bat of any description. It was purchased for me by a family member so I cannot honestly be sure of the cost of it but I knew from when I first picked it up that it was of good quality.

...This was, unbelievably, my first Kookaburra bat of any description. It was purchased for me by a family member so I cannot honestly be sure of the cost of it but I knew from when I first picked it up that it was of good quality.
Being a very aggressive player, I rely on the bats being chunky in order for them to be regularly hit for the maximum and this bat is definitely chunky alright. A common balancing problem is that a bat will be really chunky ... ...therefore a great thing for Kookaburra that the were able to make this a relatively light weight and easy pick up.

I personally prefer to try it out in the nets first. I found that ...

Advantages: Durable, Light, comes pre-knocked in Disadvantages: Weak Toe

I received this as a present and it was pleasant enough. In light of the recent 2005 Ashes win by England though it is outdated. However if you want a quick history lesson and an explanation of the great and the good in the sport this is a good place... more
I was excited when I bought Cricket 07 because from all the screenshots and everything I had seen it appeared to have got alot better and more stylish. The graphics have got alot better which adds a great deal to the game because with the last one the... more
Bats, that is. I know, obvious joke, but it's true. This is no doubt the work of a crazed young director who thought he could do the next "The Birds," except with bats.
It, pardon the pun, didn't fly.
Bats is, at best, a mediocre work involving a... more
