Oiling :

Modern cricket bats are very dried & that why they are thick & light in weight but dry bats do have some downsides. They start chipping & small cracks from face & toe and more likely to break if not oiled properly plus time to time Bat dries due to weather and playing condition, especially when we leave the bat in the car and all the moisture dries out due to excess heat.
