LOOK AT THOSE GRAINS!!!!


But i have doubts if that is actually a spartan bat....................

He was using that before he signed with Spartan, that big area of damage in the middle has slowly become more pronounced over the last 18 months or so

Test match players bat lasting 18 months?  Is this common?  i thought they would go fairly quickly due to the amount of nets, and games

Probably would have just saved that special one for games and then have used his others for netting etc. I know that if I had a special one I would do everythimg I could to keep it for games!

Knocking, caring for it, oiling it, stickering and refurbishing it. Hmm I guess people take care of them as their GFs. So as old as it goes, no other option other than sticking to it if u are comfortable with it.

Made me a few quid on backing him in play for his run total - almost even money every time for him scoring another 9 runs. Can't argue with that.

I keep meaning to mention Shiv's bat on here! It is a little bit ridiculous. I wonder how many innings/runs that bat has been through? By the looks of it, it must be a personal favourite. Seems to still have a pinging middle so why not...

Here is a couple of pictures of my Kookaburra Recoil that has definitely seen better days. Crack going from the toe up the right handers inside edge one way and slowly up the face the other! Refusing to say goodbye, even if I'm not currently using it. Maybe it's time to retire the ol' girl.
