Knocking a cricket bat is essential to prepare it for use and ensure its longevity. Here’s a short guide:
1. **Oiling**: Lightly coat the bat with raw linseed oil, focusing on the face, edges, and toe. Let it dry for 24 hours.
2. **Initial Knocking**: Using a bat mallet, gently knock the bat's face, edges, and toe. Avoid hitting the back. Gradually increase force, ensuring you don't cause damage.
3. **Gradual Knocking**: Spend about 10-15 minutes per session, repeating over several days. Rotate the bat to cover all areas evenly.
4. **Edges and Toe**: Concentrate on these areas by angling the mallet, as they are more vulnerable to damage.
5. **Final Preparation**: Check for any cracks or dents. Once the bat is well compressed, it’s ready for light net practice. Progress to more intense practice before using it in a match.
Regularly inspect and maintain your bat for the best performance.
