Choosing and preparing your bat
Choose a bat you can lift and swing comfortably with your batting gloves on. Short Handle is an adult size, not a junior size. Prepare the blade and knock it in before hard-ball use, following the manufacturer's care instructions. Keep the bat dry and inspect the face, edges and toe regularly.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the adult Short Handle version?
Yes. This listing is for Short Handle only. It is not a Harrow, Size 6 or other junior version.
What willow grade does the Blak 111 use?
DSC specifies Grade 3 English willow for the Blak 111. It is not a Kashmir willow bat.
Will my bat look exactly like the photographs?
The photographs show the model. Natural timber varies, so grain pattern, colouring and small cosmetic markings differ between individual bats.
Does it need knocking in?
Allow for proper preparation before playing with a hard cricket ball. Confirm any preparation service separately rather than assuming it is included.
Can I request a particular weight?
Ask us to check available individual weights before ordering. The published range is indicative and does not guarantee an exact weight.
DSC’s cricket range includes bats, protective gear and kit essentials. Compare this model’s stated materials and fit with your playing role and existing equipment.

Care and common questions
How should I care for this product?
Follow the bat manufacturer’s oiling, knocking-in and storage instructions. Introduce natural-willow bats gradually to hard-ball use; a workshop service does not guarantee immediate match readiness. Avoid excessive oil, damp storage and direct heat. Check face, edges and toe after play.
How do I choose the right size?
Choose pickup, not just appearance.
Use player height with the bat-size calculator, then consider comfortable pickup, playing level and ball type. Natural willow varies between individual bats. Approximate weight, grains, handle construction and included cover are only as stated in the product details. Email us for individual-bat weight and photos before ordering.
Open sizing help ↗Can I confirm individual product details?
Email info@nzcricketstore.com with the product name and selected variant. Ask about individual photographs, bat weight, materials or compatibility before placing the order.
When will it arrive?
Delivery costs and options appear at checkout. Orders normally take one business day to process before dispatch; workshop preparation and product availability can add time.
