It's a good way of getting out of replacing a bat if someone opts for the 'soft like the pros' myth.

And plenty will.

Use of CBF- style 'opening-up' too, I see!

I have just been blocked on Twitter by Newbery for saying that a bat is either pressed correctly or not, and asking what does soft pressed vs hard pressed mean.
All a bit weird.

I have been blocked on Twitter by Newbery for asking where their factory happened to reside.

Don't agree with Aldred on pretty much everything but he deserves credit for building up his business and is reaping the rewards by able to now make bats full-time. Good luck to him and Newbery.

I'm curious as to what you disagree with, the brand or views?

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

It just proves my theory that CBF views are not palatable to people outside of CBF and such views are better kept to ourselves.  :D

If you're going to have passionate views about something, at least stick to them?

Also: why is 'hand-finished in England' better than 'made in India'?
