Pushing Josh Brown

What is cricket bat face protection?

What is cricket bat face protection?

Back in the day, willow had considerably more moisture and was oiled regularly before a protective coating was applied, which meant no further oil was required given it was incredibly difficult for the moisture to escape and dry out the willow. Nowadays, there are more breakages due to the dryness of the willow and whilst oiling it will help, the most effective and efficient form of protection is cricket bat face protection.   

We specialise in four key face protections, which have been designed to be easily removed and replaced when sending your bat in for a cleanup and will not disrupt the way you bat against all kinds of cricket balls.
