    Default Cricket Bats

    What would be the ideal cricket bat size of a person who is about 6ft?

    I want something that is lightweight.

    I was thinking of something like this

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/GRAY-NICOLLS...outThisProduct

    Or the same one but in size 5

    And a quick question, do you guys "knock" your bats in too? What i mean is hit a ball against the bat so it prevents it from breaking as quickly?

    My gosh, knocking it in is a stressful process. Rub some of that oil in. Leave it in for a day. Start using the mallet... knock it in for 1-3 hours.

    The more you knock it in the better you'll get of out the bat. So i guess it's worth it.

    I want a nice looking bat tbh.. A nice lightweight one.

    The reviews on Gray-Nichol's bats are pretty bad... I don''t know if i should get a fusion one.
