Description
SS TON Elite English Willow Cricket Bat – Long Blade
The Elite is the lightest way into the TON range, and this Long Blade edition pairs that light pick-up with an extended hitting area — a combination that suits tall players who want reach without carrying weight through the swing.
Why Players Choose the Elite
This blade is Grade 5 English willow, air dried rather than kiln forced. On this grade you will see genuine grain character and colour variation across the face; it is cosmetic, and it is what keeps a real English willow bat at this price.
Massive concave edges pull mass toward the middle, which is exactly what a long blade needs if it is not going to feel unwieldy. Paired with the Light weight class, this is one of the easier long blades to pick up.
