Cricket Bat Wooden Mallet by Yogi Sports

Product Description Regular, Cricket Bat Wooden Mallet/Hammer for Bat Knocking

The Wooden Mallet/Hammer weighs 12.6 ounces and comes in a brown color. It is designed to protect the bat from damage caused by miss-timed shots, making it ideal for improving strokes and hardening the edges of the bat. This mallet is suitable for use with English and Kashmir Willow bats.

Included in the box is 1 Cricket Bat Mallet Hammer, which is essential for knocking the bat in. Crafted from shesham wood, this mallet is the ultimate tool for preparing your bat for gameplay. It features a two-sided knocking hammer for versatility in the knocking process.

When using the mallet, start by hitting the face of the bat with moderate force to create a shallow indent. Gradually increase the force as you become more comfortable with the process. Check for the indent by holding the bat up to a light.

Continue knocking the face of the bat until it is completely level, matching the height of the initial indent. This process may take up to 6 hours to properly complete, but the more time spent knocking the bat, the less likely it is to crack.

Be cautious when knocking the edges of the bat, as hitting them directly may cause cracking. Instead, focus on the area where the face and edge meet at a 45-degree angle. Work your way from the top of the bat down to ensure both edges are properly knocked in.

Finally, use the mallet to hit the toe of the bat, which is the thinnest part of the blade. Make an initial impression and then level out the rest of the toe to complete the bat preparation process.
