DSC Split 55 Grade 2+ English Willow Cricket Bat – Youth

DSC Spliit 55 Grade 2+ English Willow Cricket Bat - Youth

Product Description

A powerful profile and a generous sweet spot make the DSC Spliit 55 a strong choice for youth players who like to take control. It's made from top-quality natural English willow and handcrafted by master craftsmen.

The bat is traditionally shaped and styled for maximum stability, with a maximum hitting area to work with. A low blade profile suits front-foot players, and a treble spring handle gives maximum shock absorption and strength, which helps youth batters as they step up into faster, more competitive cricket.

Like all English willow bats, the Spliit 55 needs proper knocking-in before match use. SJ Sports offers this as a complimentary bat preparation service, so the bat is match-ready.
