The bat has not been knocked in yet, that will need to be done before it is ready to face any balls. I am able to oil and professionally knock in the bat (by hand) for £25 and can provide an anti-scuff sheet of your choice.
The New Balance DC700i MAX Ultra Lightweight Cricket Bat Short Handle 2lbs 7oz would be suitable for players looking for a responsive, lightweight bat with quick swing for improved performance and maneuverability in cricket matches.
