FEATURES

  • SWEET SPOT POSITION = Mid to Low: This is world class professional bat at its own. This means you can enjoy strokes on the front and back foot on all types of wickets This popular sweet spot position creates a balanced pickup.
  • BOW = Slight Bow: This is a combination between the traditional and large bow which is the most common when making a cricket bat. A more pronounced bow enabling the sweet spot to be lower on the blade, ideal for play on slow and low pitches.
  • EDGES = Big: With 38-40mm concave edges, this bat has plenty of willow which makes it perfect for power hitting.
  • PROFILE SHAPE = Full Profile Min Concaving: The bat has very limited wood taken out the back of the bat with plenty of wood left where it really matters for a great ping. This is the shape that most pro’s like especially in the ODI/T20 format due to the value for strokes you receive with this profile.
  • FACE = Flat Face: It is done to give the appearance of the big bats we all know today. It allows the bat maker to press the bat lighter and get great ping in the sweet spot. It takes a touch longer for the bat to 'open up' but once it does the ball stays hit.
  • TOE = Semi Square Toe: The main reason for an Semi square toe is that it helps minimise damage from tapping at the crease and running in, as the toe is slightly offset.
