The Slazenger V800 cricket bat is Slazenger's global best seller, made essentially for the big hitter. The sweet spot is low on the blade with big edges and an impressive swell putting volume into the hitting area, but it is well balanced and weighs in at 2lb 8oz to 2lb 12oz. Available in three different models: V800, V850 and V900. All are made from Japanese bamboo and have a wood handle wrapped in leather. They are all brand new and come with bag and crutch. Slazengers are known for their huge sweet spot and heavy construction. They are also very popular in South Africa where they make use of local materials only. Here are some detailed specifications for you: length 43 inches (109 cm), weight 2 pounds 8 ounces (1.35 kg), maximum batting age 20 years. Bats are strong enough to take any bowling up to 150 miles per hour (240 km/hr) plus, and if you get a good one it will last forever as long as you take care of it. There are many types of bats in the world, but for domestic games they all follow the same basic design. The two main differences between brands are the size of the ball that comes with each model and the weight of those models. For example, one brand might have a smaller ball that is harder to hit straight.
