Can we change bat during a match

Rules

For Example, if I have 2 bats, one for offensive play and one for defensive play. Suppose I was using the offensive bat during the first set and then wanted to use the defensive bat for the second set, is it legal to do so?

I know it is better to only focus on one playstyle, and I am not planning to do the above, but just curious if that's allowed in terms of the rule.

Thanks

Hi Hin,

You are only allowed to change a bat during a match if you damage it accidentally.  Otherwise you need to stay with the same bat.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
