I've got my first indoor game of the season and i'm wondering what bat's do people use? My bat for next year will be my Ce but i don't particularly want to use it for indoor games, so i might use my RBK. It shouldn't matter as much about how much ping a bat's got if it is indoor cricket should it?

i use as light a bat as possible for indoor but thats just me

[Howzat]

Light as pos is best... I know a lot of people use a kashmir bat as it is so durable and ping doesnt really matter!

[gramw]

yeah i know some people who use kashmir but i wudnt i only use a light bat to play late cuts etc into the corners so depends on your role

I used a 2lb 7oz indoor so I could get manoeuvre the bat more easily and get the ball to where I need.

I've played a fair bit of Indoor Cricket, including some more competitive stuff and would recommend getting a bat as light as possible. What its made out of doesn't really matter, Ive used English Willow, Kashmir and now Poplar Wood! Honestly I've found my AM Poplar wood bat to be the best, probably just because it's the lightest.

So I'd recommend just getting a bat that feels good in your hands, and weighs less than 2 Lb 4 oz - 2 Lb 5 oz.

Happy Chopping.

Honestly for indoor, a cheap and light weight bat, so anything you want that weighs in the weight you want it to..

As you probably know, I use a 3lb bat outdoors, but for indoor I use a 2lb 10oz bat, which seems just the right weight for me, might have to invest in a new bat at this weight for next season.

But my indoor bat is a kashmir bat, sprayed black to look like the stanford bats. Got a bit of stick when I walked out but as always, i didnt hold back with my responses lol.

If i went to bat with a black bat i would bve told to go and get a different one.

The umpires in our league didnt seem to have any problem with it and I play division 1 indoor cricket. I was polite enough to go the office before the game and ask about the bat, and they said its fine to use it! Pictures:

If anyone is still after an indoor bat I have a bat in 2lb 6oz with a big profile available.

[Talisman]

Tom, I would like a black one if you still have one, it will never be used as its for a friend who does not play.
