Bat Knocking in.

Bat Knocking-in service

So you've just spent your hard earned money on a new cricket bat and you decide to go straight down the nets to see how good (fingers crossed) it is. DONT!

 Every bat must be knocked-in well before even thinking about hitting a ball with it,

This service includes

• Oiling the bat whilst being careful not to over oil as this can be disastrous.

• Lightly sanding the bat between each coat of oil.

• Bone the edges of the bat to help prevent nasty splits although cracking can still happen, however  boning the edges can reduce the risk.

• Then we use a Bat mallet to start hitting the face, edges and down near the toe of the bat in a controlled manner starting gradual and getting firmer over time.

• Only through experiance will we know how much Knocking-in is needed on your bat before you can then and only then begin the gentle throw down period before finally being able to use in a game.

• The bat will also be fitted with a Antiscuff sheet and tape down the edges.
