How bats are aiding the T20 revolution

Modern cricket bats enhance power and performance, allowing players to hit boundaries even off imperfect connections, thanks to advanced design and materials.

Mumbai: The modern bat – that’s where the game has changed. It is a case of not just batters but also their weapons of choice, the bats, packing a lethal punch. The batter’s power is being amplified to hitherto unimaginable levels and that means the connection doesn’t always have to be perfect. The ball can hit the bottom of the bat, the edges or even high up and still go to the boundary or over it.
