Should I get my bat fixed or buy new?
There is no set time frame as to when to retire your cricket bat and invest in a new one. Dependent on the amount of usage your bat gets and how effectively you maintain it will determine how long your bat will continue to perform.
We prioritise the protection of our cricket bats by applying a specialised product to the toe. This high-impact resistant polyurethane resin is applied in liquid form, where it hardens into a tough yet flexible barrier. It’s specifically designed to provide superior abrasion and impact resistance, making it ideal for shielding the vulnerable toe area of your bat.
There's more than one type of handle
Cricket bat handles come in various shapes and sizes, each designed to complement different batting styles. Just like bat profiles, the shape of a handle can significantly affect your performance on the field. At Cooper Cricket, we specialize in three key handle shapes: round, semi-oval, and oval. Understanding the differences between these shapes is crucial in selecting a bat that enhances your technique and suits your individual playing style.
At Cooper Cricket, we meticulously craft your bat to meet all your specific needs and preferences. While we would love for our bats to last a lifetime, we understand that cricket bats aren’t indestructible. With the increased use of artificial balls and the modern demand for big bats with large middles, big edges, and light weights, the cricket willow used today is drier than ever before. This drying process, necessary to meet these demands, means that bats, if not maintained properly, may break or get damaged more often.
