Sir, is it allowed to change the grip, like shakehand to penhold, during play or time out in a match?

Hi Earl,

Yes you can change you grip.  There are no rules as to how you should hold the bat.

However I don't advise that you change grip because it will slow you down. The game is too fast for that now.
