Gray-Nicolls Crest Gem Cricket Bat

Gray-Nicolls Crest Gem Cricket Bat

The Gray Nicolls Crest GEM Cricket Bat is designed specifically for female cricketers and youth players who want a lightweight cricket bat that offers excellent pickup, control and confidence at the crease. Suitable for club cricket, school cricket and representative cricket, it provides a fit and feel better suited to players who benefit from a lighter bat and smaller handle.

The GEM range has been specially resized for women's and youth cricket, featuring a slightly lighter profile and a narrower handle to improve comfort, grip and bat speed.

Built for Demand

The Crest GEM features the same balanced shape and lightweight performance that define the Crest range, while incorporating sizing adjustments designed specifically for female and youth players.

Its mid profile and even bow create a versatile sweet spot that supports a wide range of shots. Whether you're rotating strike, driving through the covers or building an innings, the Crest GEM is designed to move comfortably through the ball while maintaining control.

The super light pickup helps players generate bat speed with less effort, while the narrower handle provides a more natural grip for smaller hands. This can improve confidence, comfort and shot execution throughout longer innings.

The rounded POWERCURVE face enhances feel through impact, while the medium edges provide a balanced blend of performance and manoeuvrability.

Designed for Better Fit and Comfort

Many female and youth cricketers find standard adult cricket bats can feel oversized through the handle or difficult to control over long periods.

The GEM range addresses this by providing equipment specifically developed to suit smaller hands and players who prefer a lighter overall feel. The result is a cricket bat that feels more comfortable from the first net session through to match day.
