If a courtesy runner is on base when their turn at bat comes is she out?

A courtesy runner should never be on base if she has a spot in the line-up. A courtesy runner is supposed to be a girl who is not playing in the game at all.

This makes it so their situation will not happen.

How can you stroke your cricket bat with a season ball in just 2 days?

It usually takes anywhere between 15 to 30 hours to properly stroke in a cricket ball. The recommended process has two stages. Stage 1: Start with a old cricket ball (sometimes called 'season' ball), and gently strike the bat face. Ensure that the edges and toe of the bat get special attention. Then, using an mallet (either wooden head or ball head), strike the bat face with added pressure. While every bat is different - largely depending on the quality of the willow and the degree to which it was pressed during manufacture - it is a good idea to spend at least 10-20 hours in stage 1. When the ball stops making marks on the bat face on impact, it is time to move to stage 2. Stage 2: Ideally done in the batting nets. Ask a buddy to throw a old cricket ball (from a half-pitch distance) and use the bat to hit the ball. Gradually increase the speed of the throws and the strokes. Again, there is no precise timeline, but this stage should take 5-10 hours. Once the bat has a nice 'ping' when it strikes the ball, it is ready for match play. Can this be accomplished in 2 days? Possible - but it will take atleast 15 hours of work. All the best!

How do you install a black rubber bat choke on an aluminum bat?

Place some liquid soap around the ring of the bat choke and this should allow for it to slide over the knob.

I tried liquid soap..I tried boiling the choke to make it more flexible...still to difficult/tight to get it over the knob of the bat.

I have one good idea per year..I think this was it. Get a long hard plastic funnel (i.e. the type used for oil changes). Cut the funnel at the point where the open end is slightly (and I mean slightly) larger than the knob. Rub some liquid soap inside the bat choke (and on the funnel). Put the funnel on the knob of the bat and slide the bat choke down the funnel and over the knob. Easy as pie.
