Bat Review: Adidas Incurza Control 4.0

"Offering a highly responsive feel that encourages confident strokeplay"

RRP: £300, Owzat price: £255.99, Edge: 40mm, Weight: 2lb 9oz

With thick edges and an imposing swell, the Incurza is shaped into a huge profile during production, with the clear intention of delivering power. From the moment it is picked up, it presents itself as a bat built for impact, making it very much marketed toward the modern player who values distance just as much as direction.

This is an ideal bat for players who enjoy playing big, entertaining shots and want the confidence to dominate attacks across the ground.

The Incurza range has previously been endorsed by England Men's internationals Jofra Archer and Tom Banton, reinforcing its reputation as a bat suited to high-level, aggressive play.

During testing, players were immediately attracted to the bold design, frequently referencing how clearly the weight and balance were communicated through the pick-up. The round handle is designed with comfort in mind, offering a highly responsive feel that encourages confident strokeplay.

Beyond the striking aesthetics – which drew comparisons to Liverpool's famous red – there was genuine excitement around testing the bat.

Testers repeatedly reached for it throughout the session, highlighting its appeal. One tester awarded it a perfect 10, noting that it maximised shots to both the off-side and leg-side, while also allowing them to attack straight with complete confidence.
