doesn't sound good! Where do you play Matt?

Middleton, in the CLL (Central Lancashire League). They play most Saturdays and Sundays so they have very few free days to fit 3rd XI in... So more and more teams were dropping out of it and eventually it got to 3 teams in the league so they pulled the plug

Get yourself a new club ASAP! Get playing and buying lots of shiny new kit :)

I would, but I live on the boundary and I love the club (even though I disagree sometimes with how it's ran). I suppose it may work as a motivator to try and make it into the 2nd XI

Well, sort of as expected, my net bat let go on me in spectacular fashion today.

I really went at a full delivery, misjudged it slightly (i was in full slog mode and was running at everything) and over-ran it, turning it into a yorker. Handle and a section of shoulder cracked and disintegrated in a cloud of filler (typical of cheap bats, they always have terrible handles full of filler)

I'm pleased as punch though. It's a minor excuse to go hunting for a cheap replacement (i love shopping) and also means one of my treasured match bats didn't meet it's maker prematurely.

Is anyone considering elevating their net bat to match bat status ? . I have GM purist academy 909 net bat which is the best profile I have ever used and cannot think using anything else for matches . Thanks for the bat Chad.

My net bat this is year is this lovely Vulcan i picked up from Dean via the sale section a few months back.  As you can see from my first net of the year i manages to use most of the bat except the middle lol.




I would make this my net bat this season no problem, just don't have any matching pads at present which is why at the moment it's not my match bat. Oh and the £000 worth of Salix bats as well lol

On occasions I use my main bat in the nets but not indoor nets as the floor is to hard and bounce tends to be quite low. I will use at outdoor nets at my club as they are new and very good quality nets so no problem using my match bat then.
