Yes, it is called seasoning. All players season their new cricket bats before they use it in a match. If you use a new bat in a match without proper seasoning, it may not perform as well as it can and most importantly it can end up broken.

Does anyone know a homemade alternative to a cricket bat mallet that can be made very quickly?

A very popular alternitive to a bat mallet is a cricket ball in a sock, i know it sounds strange but this is how many cricket knock in and prepare their bat. Put the ball in the sock and grab the sock just above the ball leaving a gap so it can swing round. Then just start to hit the same spot and it works just like a bat mallet :)
