More worried about bat breakage than swing and bounce to be honest!

Do clubs not provide 'net' balls for practice? Old match balls etc?

I know that feeling!

I've asked many bowlers to change to an old ball before,

No. In stock were GN, Puma,  Newbery, Mongoose, loads of Kook, GM and Nike from what I recall.

Somerset is decent. You got Somerset County Sports shop which stocks a lot of gear. Then Millichamp and Hall round the back!

I was chatting to the girl in the shop about the scoops. She said "Didn't Brian Lara use one?" at which point I got all scoop nerdy. I think she thought it was funny.
