FAQs

1. What willow is used in the GM Ben Duckett Player's Edition Cricket Bat? 

The bat is crafted from specially selected unbleached Grade 1 English Willow, chosen for its grain structure and weight to deliver premium responsiveness, power, and feel.

2. Why does this bat use a 540mm blade instead of 555mm? 

The compact 540mm blade reflects Ben Duckett's personal specifications, promoting faster pick-up and quicker bat speed through the crease, ideal for aggressive, front-foot stroke play.

3. What does DXM technology do for this bat? 

GM's DXM machining creates a lightweight, agile feel in the hand without reducing power output, helping the bat generate fast pick-up and clean hitting through the ball.

4. Does this bat need to be knocked in before use? 

GM cricket bats feature GM NOW! preparation, which includes knocking-in, oiling and a clear protective face. We do, however, suggest a ‘playing in’ period where the bat is used against old balls in the nets before being taken into a match.
