Jumpers Of Goalposts - Version 1.0 The first cricket equipment bore little resemblance to what's used today. The original bats looked much like a modern hockey stick. Folklore maintains the first paddle style evolved out of a shepherd's crook. Today's cricket bat is made of willow wood sealed with linseed oil. According to the 42 laws of cricket, the bat cannot exceed 38 inches in length and a little more than four inches wide, consisting of a handle and paddle. The handle is padded and taped in a manner similar to a tennis racket. The similarity ends there, with the cricket bat being much more substantial than a tennis racket.To get more info, please visit this website:http://webinfo.webbusiness2u.com/jumpers-of-goalposts/index.php
