Fancy getting to grips with your batting this season? Well Lekka Sport might have just the product you are looking for. The importance of the grip on a cricket bat is often underestimated, but Lekka have gone the extra mile to make sure you feel as comfortable as possible when out in the middle. The Xtrax Combi Grips are purpose-built with the main aim to provide better feel for both your top and bottom hands. The grip is split in half - the white half thicker than the spiral patterned black - and when I put it to the test it was instantly noticeable that you got a much better balance and feel for both the bat, and ball on bat. I had my top hand placed on the black 'double dipped' half and bottom hand on the thicker white material (you can reverse) and there was a marked improvement on the extra control I had on the shots as opposed to your standard grip. I had been wielding the willow for a good hour against the bowling machine and, while my gloves continued to seep with sweat, it did not affect my hold on the bat one jot. The Lekka Xtrax Combi Grips get a big thumbs up from skysports.com. Why has no-one thought of this before?!
