Which Balls to buy!
« on: June 03, 2010, 05:39:19 PM »
The only thing I know is that you should get balls that cost more than 7 quid because they tend to not be 'bat breakers'.  :(

I have been looking on ebay and as an avid fan of ebay, I know that goods are sold for much less than their retail value. My question is: are these balls, which cost 5.8 quid per piece, bat breakers or not?

There may be a straightforward answer to this but we keepers, we're different because we only know whos got the bullets arm and sausage fingers  :D

cheers

they look like bat breakers to me!! always buy the most expensive ball you can afford - about £10-12 should get you a decent one for a game to last about 80 overs
