Product Details
The SS Sir Richard is the entry into English willow cricket bats — a Grade 3 air-dried bat built for cricketers stepping up from Kashmir willow but not yet ready for Grade 1 prices. Crafted to top-player specifications with SS's signature concave TON edges, it punches above its grade with the kind of pressing and shape usually reserved for higher-tier bats.
Why batters pick this bat
A duckbill shape concentrates mass low in the blade for genuine power-hitting performance — drives, lofts, and pulls all rewarded. Air-dried willow ensures consistent ping and moisture content, while massive concave TON edges deliver impact across the hitting zone. Balanced pickup makes the bat easy to swing across long innings, and the wide clean play area provides forgiveness on shots not perfectly middled.
