Description
Somi MSD Hitter English Willow Cricket Bat
~ The way into Somi's MSD series.
The Somi MSD Hitter is the entry bat in Somi's MSD series: a short-handle English willow bat with a mid-level bulge, thick 36-40mm edges and a Sarawak cane handle. It gives leather-ball batters the MSD shape and Somi build quality at the most accessible price in the series.
Somi is the bat label of Somi Kohli, the Indian bat maker behind BAS, whose workshop built bats for MS Dhoni, including the lighter bat Dhoni asked for at the 2019 World Cup.
Why Players Choose the MSD Hitter
Hand-selected English willow
Experts hand-select each blade for quality and performance, so the Hitter plays like a proper match bat rather than a practice bat.
Mid-level bulge for improvisation
The mid-blade sweet spot supports improvised stroke play, from drives to pulls and cuts.
Thick 36-40mm edges
Edges between 36 and 40mm add power and keep mistimed shots carrying.
Built to last
A premium imported Sarawak cane handle delivers power and control, a toe protector adds durability and helps retain moisture, and the bat comes in a specially designed padded case.
