Large Edges and Shoulders – maximum hitting power and presence

ACCU-DRIVE Flat Face – enhanced rebound and control

Bat weights are subject to availability. Pictures are for illustration only. Actual bats may look different because each bat is handcrafted and made from natural willow.

Knocking Policy

Knocking-in a bat is an essential process to enhance performance and extend its lifespan. Cricket bats are valuable equipment, and proper care is crucial. A well-knocked bat can reduce the chances of cracking by up to 80%.
Hand knocking with a wooden mallet usually takes around 18–20 hours. To save our customers time and effort, Cricket + Football Shop utilises a fully automated machine to professionally prepare bats. Your bat can be ready in approximately One Hour.


Our machine features modern technology with preset knock settings to ensure complete preparation. Moving rollers cover all key areas — toe, edges, and blade — for even compression. Each new bat receives 15,000 knocks, meaning no further knocking-in is required afterwards.
