Seems like a good bat. Like a nice bat to have a bit of a slog around. Anyone know if i should oil my bat during the off season? Or just oil it every now and than when it is in common use.

Right, I might look like a cheap skate here, but I Don't care.

I have ?10 to spend on a bat because of a wage problem at work. So does any one know of any bats that I could get for this amount that are very decent?

Cheers.

Ebay probably your best bet.

I thought it probably would be, but the game is on Monday.

You're not going to get even a half decent bat for ?10. Not even off Ebay. I'd just wait and borrow a bat in your game. Save your money and buy a decent bat, you'd just be wasting your money buying a crappy ?10 bat.

Lolz at Giggity, there's no way a bat made by Slazenger, out of Kashmir willow for ?15 is going to have thick edges and a great middle. Buy a real bat.

@ KP my mate's giving me his Woodworm Torch when he gets his Woodworm Hard Drive in a few months so I will get a real bat.

For £10 you could possibly get a minibat...
My bat is back from some pre-season repairs. Apparently continued edging is bad for it...

Colin try to get some really strong tape for your bat.

Hah, I've been told that in the past

Where did you get it repaired, and how much did it cost?

Just about, a Lord's minibat is ?9.50. Mind you I've seen them as low as ?3 elsewhere so you could get 3 in case you break one

Aitken and Niven. I bought it from them less than a year ago so they got it sent away to Kookaburra and done for free
