I was under the impression that if you changed your racket during a game you had to replace it with the same blade and same rubbers can anyone advise on this?

I think it's ok to change racket during a game but you have to show it for your opponent, you don't need to use the same rubbers i think

You can't change your racket, unless it gets damaged. Then it doesn't matter if it's the same or not. You could probably ask to change to an exactly same racket and it would be fine, but what would be the point?

it can only be changed when it is damaged by accident (so it can not be changed if you do the damage on purpose, by throwing with your racket or hitting the table or so with it).
when damaged by accident , it can be changed to whatever ITTF legal racket and coverings.
you do have to let the umpire and opponent check your second blade !!

Under the rules you are only able to change if your bat is accidentally damaged and you must approach the umpire first in order to do that. I don't think there are rules on what you change to as long as your opponent knows about the change.
Does anyone know the rule internationally regarding whether spare bats have to be submitted for racket testing? Perhaps they do post-match tests on the spare bat which is edgy because if you fail a post-match test then you are disqualified from the match.
