as you know bud the problem with in door nets in the compression between a bloody hard floor and the ball with your bat.
My advice is do not use a spanker indoors

Gutting mate. I always use the oldest bat I have for nets as everybody trys to bowl a million mph at you with a crappy ball on a hard surfice and plus we haven't played for a bit so our timing is all over the place. Looking forward to seeing pics

I nearly did the same the other night, first net, started using my Redback but noticed that someone was using a very hard ball so switched to an old bat to avoid any damage, must not get tempted to use the Redback in the nets!!

I use any bat as long as they are not using bat breaker balls as if they do I just refuse to hit them the cheap gits
