1. Superior Performance
English willow is prized for its natural
elasticity and resilience, allowing bats to generate powerful and
responsive shots. The wood’s fiber structure gives excellent feedback and
control, especially for advanced stroke play.
2. Long-Lasting Durability
With proper care, English willow
bats can endure multiple seasons. Despite being softer than Kashmir
willow, the high-grade craftsmanship and maintenance make them a worthy
investment for serious and professional cricketers.
3.Customization Options
English willow bats are often custom-made
to player preferences, including:
- Weight distribution
- Handle thickness
- Blade profile
This ensures a tailored feel that supports peak performance.
To extend the life and effectiveness
of your bat:
1. Oiling
Apply raw linseed oil
periodically (especially on the face and edges) to:
- Keep the wood moisturized
- Prevent cracks and drying
- Improve stroke performance
(Avoid over-oiling, which can weaken the willow.)
2. Knocking-In
This crucial process involves:
- Lightly hitting the bat’s surface with a mallet
- Gradually compressing the fibers
It prepares the bat for match play and reduces the risk of cracks or dents.
3. Proper Storage
- Keep the bat in a cool, dry place
- Avoid exposure to extreme heat or moisture
- Use a bat cover for added protection
