MCC - lets consult with the bat makers. Bat maker - shhh lets tell them 60 /35 so the market has to buy more bats. Queue evil laughter Hahahaha

Surely there is a conflict of interest here?

The MCC have always offered a grace period in club cricket when banning bats or designs.

New business opportunity for bat makers to provide a service to trim down your tree trunks into more humane appearance.

Why is everyone quoting 35mm and 60mm?

The proposal is for edges between 35mm and 40mm and spinner heights between 60mm & 65mm



Stolen from Laver & Wood's Facebook page

I think the maximum edge should be 20 mm and the maximum depth (spine) should be 30 mm, and the boundary line should be 80 meters minimum.

Wow that spine on Carlos' bat looks like a double decker duckbill! Must be at least 80mm.

And the rest, be amazed if that isn't laminated - probably just a practice bat...

[WalkingWicket37]

I'll have one in 2lb7 please...

[Vitas Cricket]

As suggested by Neon, it's almost certainly a laminate. I feel like i can see the crudely finished join halfway up the bulge.

Plenty of massive laminated practice bats about, have been for years.

[singapore rookie]

that is massive..is that one made by himself or a batmaker?

[Phoenix]

Why don't they just make the ball smaller?

Why don't they just make the ball smaller?

Absolutely not, don't even know where to begin on that one lol

Try range hitting with a gold ball and you'll understand why!
