Gray-Nicolls Arctos Force Junior Cricket Bat

The Gray-Nicolls Arctos Force Junior Cricket Bat!

The Arctos Force is a cricket bat designed for players who rely on timing, placement, and precision. Whether you're driving through the covers or punching it off the back foot, this bat gives you the control to dictate the pace of your innings.

With a mid-low profile and even bow, the Arctos suits front-foot players who love to get forward, but it’s still balanced enough to free your hands square or late in the innings. The rounded POWERCURVE face helps smooth out your strokeplay and adds a bit of forgiveness when the timing’s not perfect.

Light in the hands and well-balanced through the swing, the Arctos Force feels steady at the crease and quick to respond. Medium-sized edges create a consistent sweet spot, while the slightly rounded toe adds finesse and helps with ground contact across varied pitches.
