Shockwave Red Edition 5*
Description
To celebrate Cricket World Cup 2019, we are excited to bring you a limited edition Shockwave: Red Edition.
The bat, available in 5 star only, will be used by new Gray-Nicolls ambassador Jonny Bairstow in CWC19.
Featuring the now iconic Shockwave fractured graphic, the cold blue has turned to red, with all paths leading to the imposing, high middle.
There is a subtle nod to the Cricket World Cup being hosted in England, with a small St.George's Cross on the back sticker.
Bats will come with an Extratec finish but no toe guard.
Every bat bought from us will receive a signed certificate from Jonny, and be entered into the Cricket World Cup 2019 "Beyond The Boundary" Experience. Get more details here.

Bats Size Guide
Picking the right bat for you
When selecting a cricket bat, it's crucial that you pick one that is the correct size for the player. If it's too small or too big, batting will be uncomfortable and performance will be compromised.
Bat size is based on the height of the player. Take a look at our handy Size Guide to see which bat size you should choose.
SH = Short Handle
LH = Long Handle
LB = Long Blade
SM = Small Men's

Common Questions
How do I care for my bat?
We recommend knocking your cricket bat in before use. You may also want to add a layer of linseed oil. Store your bat in a dry place when not in use.
See our blog on how to care for your new cricket bat including tips on adding linseed oil and replacing scuff sheets here.
How do I knock my bat in?
Using an old ball in a sock or a Deluxe Bat Mallet, hit the face of your cricket bat to condition the wood. You can also hit the edges of the bat with glancing blows, and gently hit the toe. You do not need to knock in the splice (top) of the bat.
What size bat do I need?
Please refer to our bat size guide to determine the size of the bat you require.
