Bat falls on the table during rally

Rules

Ujjal Chatterjee Asked 7 years ago

While playing (right handed player), the bat slips and falls on the table. Can he pick up the bat with his left hand and continue playing?

Hi Ujjal,

You are allowed to pick the bat up again and continue the rally. As long as you have your bat in your hand you are allowed to hit the ball with the bat.
