A testimonial for Bullfrog Bats
from Angus Fraser
(ex-England and Middlesex).
"Thoughts on a Bullfrog Bat"
My first Bullfrog Bat was given to me on England's tour to the
West Indies in 1998 just before the start of the fifth test because
the bat I was using at the time was a tatty, old stickerless piece
of wood and they felt I deserved something better.
Whilst the carving of myself bowling emblazoned on the back of
the bat was magnificent, I was at first dubious about the quality
of the blade. My fears were dispelled the first time I put it to
the test: it was a belter.
Since then I have had three other Bullfrog Bats: one specifically
for England's tour to Australia in 1998/99, depicting a lion with
a ball in its hand threatening a timid kangaroo.
The bat that I had for the 1999 World Cup depicted me sitting in
an armchair relaxing with a glass of red wine. My 2000 bat showed
me in my new position as Middlesex captain.
Bullfrog Bats, as well as being of high quality have created a
lot of interest, especially for the TV stump cameras. They have
landed me in front of some match referees but they have allowed
me to be the only international player to have his own personalised
bat logo. |
