WIN A WOODWORM TEST ELITE AS SEEN IN OUR GOOD GEAR GUIDE!

What are boutique bats?

The wider cricket bat marketplace is becoming an increasingly competitive environment and the smaller manufacturers are now able to produce blades that will go toe to toe with the bigger boys. This year’s crop feature familiar names and some lesser-knowns but what is obvious is that the attention to detail with all of these bats is second to none. This test celebrates the smaller manufacturers and allows both us and you, the readers, to see these credible brands in full view.

Woodworm Test Elite (RRP: £149.99)

Weight: 2lb 10oz

Edge width: 39mm 

Looks aren’t everything, but everyone agreed this one was stunning – and is eminently affordable. 

“A beautiful piece of wood,” said Jim. Sinan “really liked the stickers and grain.” Nancy admired the “simplicity of its look.” Performance was impressive with testers drawn to a real ping out of the middle.

Sinan said it hit well and Nancy admired its light pick-up.
