Cheers guys. Stumping was decent enjoyed thst. I have quick hands just lazy feet. Need to shift some weight. Hallams keeper is class best in league from what I have seen.

Nice lad too, had them several times this year in cups and T20 and he rarely makes a mistake. Shame I didn't get to do the final though.

I went through a stage of doing this, then I just have up as it seemed a waste of time. I e almost gone the other way now and like the cherries. Even found myself contemplating not using a scuff sheet but quickly realised that would be a stupid idea

I've only faced 5 balls in league cricket this year. I'll take every cherry I can get!

No one from up north carries women's nail varnish with them as they are all double hard.

I've only removed mine from the weekend because I missed the whole face of the blade and it hit at the edge on a right angle
Embarrassing!!

Crap balls half the teams use in our leagues don't leave cherries! Just big dents

cherries don't bother me, the more cherries the better I like the well used look rather than the usual crack of ' aww he's got a new bat'

I dont care either way as i get a new scuff sheet /refurb every season . But , when it comes to my bowling machine bat , i love marks (wouldnt call them cherries) ....its like feedback/proof of how many balls ive faced and seeing a fully marked face just seems satisfying.

Here in South Florida we have stopped using red ball.
All games are played with white ball and colored clothing.
So no cherries for us, mainly dirt marks or green colored marks during practice on turf.

Had 1st pre-season nets last night, finally cleaned by bats, new scuff sheet, all looking beautiful. Now my bat has dirty yellow marks on them from the training balls. May as well have kept it as is, no way my #1 bat is getting used until we get onto outdoor training with red pills...

The first task i do on a Sunday morning Is try to bring my kit back to a pristine condition boots are scrubbed gloves are wiped and inspected pads are clean with non abravsive cream cleaner bats are checked for damage and  repaired toes are  resealed grips changed all marks cherries etc removed  this season had a new guy at our club who had noticed there were never any marks on my bat look at me in a funny way and asked  me  I removed all marks from my kit think he thought it was OTT.
