DSC Spliit 22 Grade 1 English Willow Cricket Bat – Adult
Product Description
The DSC Spliit 22 delivers clarity with its lightweight design and pick-up. This cricket bat is ideal for players who excel on the back foot, with a mid-blade profile that's perfect for those who love to push the ball away to the boundary.
Made from top-quality Grade 1 natural English willow, the Spliit 22 combines traditional shaping with massive edges through the drive zone, giving you a maximum hitting area to work with. A well-designed cane handle keeps you comfortable through every stroke, while the mid-to-low profile delivers exquisite pick-up — built for powerful, dominating stroke play without feeling heavy in the hands.
As the flagship of the Spliit range, the Spliit 22 offers the finest willow available in the line-up, with superior appearance and performance characteristics for players who want the best available at the crease.
Like all English willow bats, the Spliit 22 needs proper knocking-in before match use — and SJ Sports offers this as a complimentary bat preparation service, so your bat arrives genuinely match-ready.
