Title: Advice needed on two old bats
Post by: Biggyd63 on April 15, 2011, 02:49:58 PM

Afternoon All

We had a clear out over the weekend
These two bats have been lying round the cricket club for years, both handles have gone and need replacing etc
What shall we do?
One is a GN Megadrive Ultrablade
One is a RWensley Warrior

Pics are just uploading

Neither are going to fetch much due to age and condition, but by sticking them on ebay, you've got nothing to use and might make a bit of cash for the club.

i was expecting some pictures of some old women after the topic title.....

these ones however are probably best used against a tennis ball only with a heavy dosage of bat tape!

GN is a low end model and never worth the cost of a rehandle and the other is really too far gone for it to be economical to get it fixed, sadly.

Driveway cricket I reckon mate. Slap some gaffer tape around one side of a tennis ball and have some fun

I'll give you £10 posted for the Warrior, going into the broken bat collection on the wall.
