I would agree that a cricket bat is much to heavy to be suitable for corporal punishment, but the miniature versions are absolutely ideal for an across the knee type of punishment. I also used to have one of these and you can buy them , with the autographs of your team on , at any cricket ground. The advantage of buying on of these is that you can purchase it without raising any suspicions about what you want it for ! I’ll be going to Trent Bridge in a couple of weeks for the season’s final game ( hopefully but not very likely to see Nottinghamshire win the championship),
