The New Balance DC 800 Junior Cricket Bat - 2024/25
The New Balance DC 800 Cricket Bat delivers trusted performance and feel for players stepping up their game this season. Built from Grade 3 English Willow, it offers an excellent blend of power, balance, and value.
Ideal for club and school-level cricketers who want a quality bat without the top-end price tag.
Like the rest of the DC range, the 800 features a full profile with a slightly lower middle, helping you find the boundary on slower pitches or when playing off the front foot. The semi-oval cane handle gives a comfortable, controlled grip, while the large edges and clean natural finish provide both forgiveness and punch through the ball.
