uhh..buy a light bat then?

Go to a shop and try a load, see how they feel and pick up to make sure you get the right one for you - then shop around online and save some money!

If I were to buy a bat online, I would probably buy it from a shop in England or australia. The shipping would cost more than the bat and it would be a waste of money for me.

Whenever I decide purchase a bat, it will be a Kookabura, Gray Nicholas, or MB Malik Sher.

Calm down... Take it easy.

Kookabura is a well known company and most people say its good. I have used 2 different Kookabura's at practice so you can't say that I haven't used kookabura.

I have used a Kookabura Kahuna and some other kookabura. I have also used a Gray Nicholas. And they're all fine bats.

Oh, sorry about that. I always thought it said Gray Nicholas. I never noticed that it said Gray Nicolls. I will check what it actually says at practice.
