Everything you need to know before buying a cricket bat โ€” sizes, profiles, edges, and grains.

๐Ÿ“

Edges

Thicker edges (40mm+) give more power and a bigger sweet spot. Modern bats have 38โ€“44mm edges for maximum hitting.

๐Ÿ“Š

Grains

Grains are vertical lines on the bat face. 6โ€“10 straight grains = better quality. Fewer grains = younger wood = harder but less performance.

๐Ÿชต

Knocking In

New English willow bats must be knocked in with a bat mallet for 4โ€“6 hours before use to compress fibres and prevent cracking.
