Looking at some of the prices of cricket equipment being sold is ridiculous.
My question is how are kids affording this? what about the poor players in Pak domestic circuit.
hence tape ball cricket
Tape ball bats prices also increased 200 Rs to 1000 Rs
yesterday in pindi, i saw a tapeball bat going for 2000 rs.![]()
Yaar CIML now days in Pakistan these tape-ball bats have like 30mm+ edges!!!
wow!
wat wood r dey made of ?
with tape ball cricket does it make much difference how big the bat is?
wat? really bro?
thats really expensive. what brand was it?
so when they do have the tapeball tournament who puts the tape on the ball?? how many layers etc?
2 usually but then 3 at maximum.
who puts it on the ball?
how often?
Anyone can put it, it doesn't require much of skills.
When the tape is ripped/damaged etc old tape is peeled off and new one is applied.
Not really, in tape ball tournament they use two layers so the tape doesn't get rip fast, however, in gali/mohalla cricket one layer is enough.
There are few methods of taping the ball but then whoever is applying the tape uses the method he is comfortable with.
There is also a brand which is preferred as it has better quality tape compare to others.
When I was playing tape ball in Pakistan Nitto was the brand of choice for us as opposed to Osaka which was also readily available.
Nitto still is the best, Osaka is rubbish compared to Nitto.
Also ball plays important role as well, if you have a good ball (hard too) then the tape goes for longer period of time.
These days I would say Boom Boom Apex tennis ball is quite good for tape ball cricket.
