I'm 6'3 and use SH, LB or LH.
I do have some LH and LB, but am more than happy to use SH as I got on well with most sizes.

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.

I have a lot of injuries and a long bladed bat is great for me or anyone with a bad back as you dont have to bend down and hurt yourself getting at the low balls!!! I am five feet nine inches tall. i know a lot of guys who play with long bladed bats with short handles.
