Senior Cricket Bat
Superior Grade 3 English Willow
Low Sweet Spot

New for the 2024/25 season, the AION has a large and low sweet spot, with huge edges that are balanced by the bat's L555 traditional length blade, an F2 flat face profile and sweeping spine. The AION is the perfect ally for batters wanting to play powerful, attacking shots. All GM bats are finished factory knocked in with 'GM NOW!' antiscuff sheet and 'TOETEK' DriGuard protection.

SWEET SPOT POSITION = Low: Performs at its best when players hit through the 'V' with a straight bat. Often favoured by those who play at the top of the order or find themselves on lower bouncing wickets. Crush a drive with one of these and the bowlers will know they're in for trouble.

PREPARATION = GM Now!: This bat has been oiled, pressed, had extratec applied, and been given the GM 'DriGuard' toe treatment. However, we still strongly recommend 'playing in' before match use.

BOW = Standard: The regular bow found in the majority of modern cricket bats which gets your hands slightly ahead of the ball for ease of stroke play. It also helps the cricket bat feel more aggressive.

EDGES = Big: These edges are heading close to the magic 40mm mark. Big edges make for a forgiving and powerful cricket bat with a wider sweet spot. Please be aware that junior bats can still have big edges but they will be relative to 40mm due to their size.

SPINE HEIGHT = High: A high spine maximises the hitting power of the centre of the cricket bat.

PROFILE SHAPE = Full: The full players style cricket bat is the peak of cricket bat production. This kind of profile is both the most powerful and most forgiving. Such a design is what you will usually see at the international level. A full profile usually means one of two things. Either the bat is constructed from high quality lightweight willow or has an above average weight. 

FACE = Flat: A modern flat face helps widen the sweet spot slightly & increases the size of the edges. This style allows a 'point and shoot' approach to stroke play giving the batsman confidence what the ball will go where they're aiming. Please be aware that extra attention will need to be paid to the edges during the knocking-in process. 

HANDLE TYPE = Semi-Oval: A happy medium that brings the benefits of both oval & round handles. This shape aids alignment, slightly weakens the bottom hand for more controlled stroke play and still allows for creative use of the bottom hand.

TOE = DriGuard: This bat has been prepared with GM's DriGuard treatment.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

CRICKET BAT WARRANTY & THINGS TO REMEMBER:

  • A cricket bat is not going to look new forever & cracks will appear.
  • Bats are made of a natural material & have an incredibly hard task of hitting a solid Cricket Ball repeatedly.
  • Cracks can occur during the Knocking-In process & do not necessarily resemble a fault/defect
  • Cracking may be an indication of insufficient Knocking-In, improper preparation/use, soft willow etc
  • A small amount of cracking is normal & has no impact on the performance of the bat. These can usually be sanded down & have been appearing on bats for centuries
  • The lifespan of a bat depends on the amount of use & care taken.
  • Added protection such as Extratec & Toe Protection is highly recommended for enhanced longevity
  • Some bats may require more/less preparation than initially advised. Knocking-In time is a general guide & does not mean that once you have completed the hours that your bat is ready. Eg if your Knocking-In has not been performed up to standards you could spend 30+ hours on your bat & it may still not be ready.
  • The price of a bat does not reflect the potential longevity of the willow. In fact, the more expensive bats are made of softer willow & though they will outperform cheaper bats, they may not last as long.

BAT WARRANTY PROCESS:

GCCC needs to see your bat to arrange the correct course of action following a warranty claim. Currently, there is no standard remedy for a claim. Each claim will depend on the circumstances & is taken on a case-to-case basis. A course of action may include a repair, replacement, refund or having the service performed again. GCCC will deal with any return of a bat purchased either from our Stores or Online. We will always assess your claim in adherence of the Australian Consumer Law. All cricket bats sold by GCCC have a 12-month warranty against damage deemed to be manufacturing fault & no fault of the consumer. Most claims cannot be remedied instantly.

THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER:

  • Yorker damage to the toe of the bat
  • Damage that occurs due to lack of Knocking/Playing In, machine Knocking-In or inaccurate play.
  • GCCC doesn’t recommend that bats be Knocked/Played In by machine. Machines often fail to complete the process correctly or damage the bats and put pressure on the shoulders causing damage.
  • Damage resulting by bats being machine prepared (not naturally Played In)
  • Damage that occurs due to poor preparation/maintenance (e.g. lack of toe guard, over/under oiling etc)
  • Damage due to moisture (wet weather) or heat (do not leave in car boot/direct sunlight etc)
  • Damage from non-leather or composite balls (including bowling machine balls)
  • Improper use (including hitting things others than cricket balls – eg stumps)

Cricket Bat Warranty may be voided if the above guidelines are not adhered to. Bats with broken handles, cracks & other minor occurrences within the warranty guidelines will be sent back to the manufacturer for repair. It takes an average of 10-14 working days to assess/repair the occurrence in conjunction with the manufacturer. When making a warranty claim, proof of purchase needs to be supplied to GCCC by the customer (receipt/bank statement).

Please remember that Cricket Bats are made from a natural material that has the incredibly hard task of hitting a solid object repeatedly. A small amount of cracking is normal & has no impact on the performance of the bat. Small cracks can usually be sanded out and have been appearing on cricket bats for centuries! Cracking is not a sign of a faulty bat, but an indication your bat requires further knocking in.
