In reply to Shameer Kammadam. I would go with the Classic Prestige. I have an older Prestige and love it.

Hello Chris,
I’m currently looking to purchase a new bat and am torn between 3 gray nicolls models: the Classic Prestige 2024 ,the Tempesta 1.0 5 Star and the shockwave 2.0 5star . I’m an aggressive front-foot player who enjoys playing powerful, long-range shots, and I’m looking for a bat that complements that style. I’ve noticed that one of the cricket bat review websites rated the Classic Prestige (2025 model) at 8.6 and the Tempesta 1.0 5Star at 7.6, which has added to my confusion.Could you please advise which of these bats would be better suited for a power-hitter style T20 style playing?

In reply to Darrell Butler. I like that idea a lot! Thing with majority of teas now is nothing is home made, all bought in, but we will do a tea!!

Is it something we can do? A “vegan” match – produce a vegan tea, use a one off game as a platform to do this next season.

Most cakes, scones etc. can be made vegan with no impact on their taste and it’d be good to challenged the “do I need to eat meat” thinking a lot of our friends have.

I’m not sure Chris wants his dirty laundry discussed on a public forum

Football teams tend to at least wait until the season has begun before the prematurely sack managers ????

Darrell that is not the same at all. Does a football team that is underperforming stick with the manager until the end of the season ‘because we have a contract’

“” I’ve rarely seen a project publish its results weekly and so insensitively. The generally accepted way would be to publish it at the end of a period, not after each incident. “”

This is a good point. I would, for example, expect the results of a 12 week coaching programme to be fedback at the end of a period and not 4 weeks in!!
