Long Blade: Selecting a long blade would add 1 inch to the blade length and approximately 20 grams to the bat weight.
Long Blade Long Handle: Increases overall bat length by about 2 inches and the weight by 40 grams.

Bat Profile:
Thick Toe Duckbill: Features minimal or no concaving, providing excellent balance and power with a thick toe for easier pick-up. Ideal for playing a variety of shots and suited for slower, low wickets.
Full Blade: Minimal wood is removed from the back, focusing on maximum wood concentration for powerful shots. Perfect for power hitters and well-suited for ODI and T20 formats.

Bat Weight: Choose your preferred weight range. Note that customizations like bat size and toe guard may affect the final weight. Refer to the specific customizations for details on how each feature impacts weight.

Handle Type:
Round Handle: Favored for horizontal shots and increased wrist flexibility, ideal for aerial play.
Oval Handle: Enhances top-hand control and reduces handle twist, improving energy transfer and skill development.
Semi-Oval Handle: Combines features of both round and oval handles, offering balanced control and flexibility.

Sweet Spot:
Low Sweet Spot: Ideal for front foot players on slower pitches, enhancing driving and boundary-clearing shots.
Mid Sweet Spot: Suited for versatile batters, providing a broad hitting area for balanced play on various pitches.
High Sweet Spot: Best for back-foot play on fast, bouncy pitches, focusing on speed and precision.

Toe Shape:
Round: Traditional choice that helps prevent toe damage, ideal for frequent crease taps.
Square: Enhances pick-up and extends the sweet spot to the toe, improving playability.
Semi-Square: Combines attributes of square and round toes, offering a balanced design for handling and protection.

Add-ons:
Additional Knocking: 1000 extra knocks available for a more refined bat. Takes an additional 2 days for dispatch.

Customisation Note:
Weight Changes: Customization may alter the final weight. Features affecting weight include bat length and toe guard. Lower sweet spots may make the bat feel heavier due to the shift in the centre of gravity.
