Long Handle: Increases handle length by 1 inch and bat weight by approximately 10 grams.

Long Blade: Adds 1 inch to blade length and approximately 20 grams to bat weight.

Bat Profile:

Thick Toe Duckbill: This profile comes with minimal or no concaving and offers great balance and power. It features a thick toe that aids pick-up due to the ergonomic design. Thick toe duckbill is currently the most preferred profile amongst professional players as it allows you to play all kinds of shots and is ideal for slow and low wickets.

Full Blade: The bat has minimal wood removed from the back, prioritising wood concentration where it matters most for maximum ping. This profile is perfect for power hitters, especially towards the end of an innings or when facing slow deliveries from spinners. The bat offers a well-balanced pick-up and feels excellent in hand, making it a preferred choice for many batters in ODI and T20 formats.

Sweet Spot:

Low Sweet Spot: Ideal for front foot players who like to slog. It is effective on slower pitches, especially in the Indian sub-continent. It enhances the batter’s ability to drive and play late and suits players who play in the V and like to clear the boundary.

Mid Sweet Spot: Best for versatile batters who excel with both front and back foot shots. Suited for all types of pitches, this sweet spot offers a broad hitting area for balanced play.

High Sweet Spot: Ideal for batsmen who play on fast, bouncy pitches and prefer back-foot play. Perfect for players emphasising speed and precision in their strokes.

Handle Type:

Round Handle: Favoured for horizontal shots, especially by Asian players, these handles increase wrist flexibility and power for aerial play.

Oval Handle: Liked by players worldwide for enhancing top-hand control and precision. It minimises handle twist on impact, boosting energy transfer and aiding skill development.

Semi-Oval Handle: Combines the best of oval and round handles, offering balanced control and flexibility for versatile batting styles.

Toe Shape:

Semi-Concave: Combining attributes of both square and round toes, the semi-concave toe offers a balanced design that enhances bat handling while providing stability and protection against damage, ideal for players seeking a blend of performance features.

Square: Preferred by modern international players, the square toe enhances bat pick-up and extends the sweet spot to the toe. It offers a larger toe area by minimising material wastage, improving overall playability.

Round: The traditional choice for many players, the round toe helps prevent bat toe damage, especially useful for players who frequently tap the crease.
