Advantages: Cheap, good ball Disadvantages: NONE!!
...This ball is of great quality for the price that it is and theball offers great speed and has a long lasting seam and the leather of the ball is of amazing quality. I originally bought this ball in Decathlon for aprice of £4 and was just waning to take down to the nets on a dail basis. Yet I was amazed by the fantastic leather that offered antastic resistance to let the leather become damb so that it bounces about 1 inch. I have now had this all for just over 6 months and the Slazenger logo is still on it and it is just as in perect condition of how i bought it. great ball for such a cheap price. I would reccomend this as a ball to get. 10/10. This ball is of great quality for the price that it is and theball offers great speed and has a long lasting seam and the leather of the ball is of amazing quality. I originally bought this ball...

BUT swing bowlers this Slazenger is the ball for you.
The ball does look good but don't get mislead by this, as this is a problem that occurs a lot.
From my experience i have tried many different types of ball but this ball is certiantly...

Advantages: Brilliant middle, nice design Disadvantages: None as yet
...After finishing my first season at my local cricket club with no cricket bat of my own, I decided it was about time to buy my own.
After lots of recommendations about different bats I decided to go to the sports store and find out more.
Thats when I stumbled upon an end of season price for the Slazenger V500 Select of £30. Usually this particular bat is £70. I plumped for the Short handle (mainly because it was the only one left in the shop!!).
I wasn't disappointed.
The bat didn't need 'knocking in' due to the protective cover over the front so I was straight in the Winter Nets with it. After a few overs getting used to the bat, I found the middle quite easily. The middle of this bat is not for the faint hearted!! A nice cover drive saw the ball hurtling THROUGH the bottom of the net and towards the far corner of the room. Next...
