What would you call your bat?
« on: January 22, 2013, 09:10:17 PM »

The Spitroaster, it will blow bowlers all over the front of the wicket, and streakishly smash them behind the wicket

I'd name my range after nuts.

Pecan
Chestnut
Peanut

Then I'd bring out a range of bat sleeves and call them nut sacks.

What I call my bat at the beginning and at the end of my innings, are 2 different things. Neither of which are publishable on here!

Toro Y Moi - The Bull & I

It translates as 'Bull' in Spanish and 'Me' in French, i like it as its represents the relationship between a batsman (I) and his bat (The Bull).

It also happens to be my favourite musical artist!

Bit deep I know ha
