Puma 2015 evoSpeed 4 Cricket Bat

The new evoSPEED bat collection sets a new benchmark to deliver high performance hitting power with re-weighted
balance and control. By repositioning the bulk of the willow throughout the main hitting area of the blade, along with a slightly flatter face, it has allowed evoSPEED to bolster the thickness of its edges, and combined with an impressive swell to produce a destructive bat. Superior pick-up remains the focus of a blade that is beautifully contoured with flowing edges from shoulder to toe. Ultra-modern design, lightweight construction and striking cosmetics, a perfect combination for the modern high impact player. Evo Speedbats are designed for players looking for a supreme level of performance that combines quality and craftsmanship with consistent levels of high impact hitting power.
