The Velocity XP1 Powerblade Junior Cricket Bat from Gray Nicolls is made from Grade 5 English Willow. Fitted with a toe guard and anti-scuff sheet for extra protection for your strongest weapon. The concave sculpting gives a professional pick up and superb balance, while the semi-oval handle improves comfort. The New Zone Pro grip enhances the feel through the shot, with maximum edge profiling and a mid to high blade bow. The mid-blade strike zone is suited to both front and back foot play.
