Gem Players Cricket Bat
Description
Hot on the heels of launching our Gem soft collection, we are proud to release the Gem Players Cricket Bat, made specifically with female cricketers in mind.
The bat might not look different to the casual observer, but to those female cricketers that have been using bats that are too big or too heavy for years, the change will be most welcome.
Firstly, the bat is slightly shorter. This makes the bat more comfortable to use at the crease, removing weight and making the pick-up as light as possible – better engineered for female cricketers.
Secondly, we’ve used a super short handle. This will enable players. To improve control, increase handspeed and further optimize the pick-up.
The bat will weigh between 2lb6oz and 2lb9oz – perfect for most female adults.
Small, subtle changes that will have a major impact on female cricketers around the world.
Design-wise, we’ve worked with our female ambassadors to ensure the design is classy and classical. This would not be a women’s only product by virtue of just being pink; we wanted the look of the bat to be desirable for all. The blue and white decals achieve just that, with almost winged-style design emphasizing the width of the bat as you look down the spine.
Gem is here to stay, so if you have been looking for a cricket bat that truly meets your needs, this is the one for you!

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 should also add a layer of linseed oil if your bat does not come fitted with an Extratec sheet. 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.
