The boys had a NatWest T20 Blast warm up session today.
Let's just say the bats didn't like it as Compo, Lewis G and Kiesy killed theirs!

Some ugly looking bats there by forum standards!

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!

Good effort by Compton that!

As for the GM, cut the toe down, longer handle and it's a T20 bat!

Unless there's a huge crack on the face of it I'd still use that GM even without cutting the toe down  :D wouldn't exactly call it broken.

One of my mates has an old Powerbow that's had a corner of the toe missing for about 3 seasons. It looks odd but the "break" hasn't got any worse.

Then again if I got all my bats free I'd get through 2 or 3 a week probably  :-[
