I was playing with my friend who was teaching me how to receive certain serves and while trying them out, my bat banged against the edge of the table and the rubber on the side got cut.. it's not completely off of the bat but you can clearly see it. Now the problem is that I've to play a tournament in two-three weeks time and I do not know whether to buy a new rubber or keep playing with that. Any help would be appreciated :) the rubber is a Tibhar mx-p.

Hi Vishal,
If the cut is not too big then it should be OK. You could put a little glue under the cut and try to glue the piece down. It will usually be OK.
If it is a State or National level tournament they may get technical and not allow it.

Hi Vishal,
Thanks for the picture. You will be able to put a little glue under the crack and then press it back into place. It should come up well.
