if you are quick with it, then yes probably, but it depends on the brand, as alot dont offer a warranty i dont think... :/ I could be wrong though, Im sure Mike or one of the sponsors could help me out there, but if it isnt covered by the warranty, I would get it repaired and taped mate

What brand is it? The willow looks strange, well the grains do. They don't seem to run vertically down the blade. I'd glue and pin it though if you don't get any luck returning it.

The bat is either covered by a warranty or it's not! Saying something like that is just an excuse and not a very good one at that...

Having said that, I can imagine you'd have to jump through a lot of hoops with the likes of GM/GN, Puma, Slazenger etc to get them to replace it after all this time....

I guess it is tricky. Under UK law, if a warranty is ofgered then fine bit under sale of goods, it has to last s reasonable time, and while that looks like a flae caused during the hsndle fitting, the length of time you've had it and therefore the conditions in which it was kept may be called into question.

Im just saying, that I have only had good experience buying from all the guys on this forum, untill now!
From now on, I will stick to the people that I know, have a good reputation and care about customer service..
So this is just my warning, so you guys don't end up in the same situation like me.

I have been told, that there is a concept called, 1 cricket bat for 1 player, has anyone els heard that ?
That means, if someone els are using your bat, the warranty disapears..
