Yeah I tend to agree with that. Well I found it gaves me the best result when I did it. Obviously you wouldnt want to take your match bat to the nets as it often gets killed in there, but prior to 'match' condition apply a facing then play gentlely against 70mph is a great way to knock in the middle.

I normally just spend awhile hitting a cricket ball up and down on differant spots on the bat. Saves time and I've never had any problems.

A good trick is to run the bat face along a smooth hard surface eg the edge of bath . If you press down quite firmly this helps to compact the wood fibres and will speed up the process |

Not such a daft answer,some batmakers in India soak they cletfs in baths or tubs before they press them.
