BAT GUARANTEE AND WARRANTY

•  A cricket bat is not going to look new forever & cracks will appear with use.
• Bats are made of a natural timber & 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, bad quality cricket ball, etc.
• A small amount of cracking is normal & has no impact on the performance of the bat.
• The lifespan of a bat depends on the amount of use & care taken.
• Added protection such as anti-scuff sheet,fibre tape 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 usually outperform cheaper bats, they may not last as long.
• Humax Cricket usually provides services in..
