Do you bat against black cricket balls?

I've seen red, yellow, orange and green marks before but never that dark

Quite a few Aussie nets will have black conveyer belt rubber around the wire netting, this gets the ball grubby.

Had been using the B3 up until a couple of weeks ago when a large crack started forming in the toe.  I can't get it up to Nottingham for repairs for a few weeks and don't want to risk it being beyond repair, so I've started using the Bubble I got from Jake in the winter.

The B3, in its second season, is going phenomenally well, very forgiving and the middle is a joy to feel.  That said, I'm as happy with the Bubble which, unsurprisingly, still needs to open up fully but, again, it has a great middle and is getting very positive comments from team mates.  Very happy to have two bats that perform so well...

Yep exactly what skip said, good old conveyor belt.

Don't want to take the scuff off really, this bat has scored me loads of runs, don't want to change it

Get some nail polish cleaner pads off the mrs or a pharmacy they clean the scuff sheet pretty well, make it look brand new. Paul at IJC did a video showing how to do it.

That's a big bat for 2.85 AlRidd, what's the pickup scale on that GM?

There isn't an official one. Picks up extremely well though.

My match bat, weighs about 2.10-11.

It's an absolute gun, never used anything better hence it is my current match bat.
