GM Azora Limited Edition Cricket Bat (2027)

The GM Azora Limited Edition Cricket Bat from Gunn & Moore is an English willow bat for players who like to dominate off the front foot and want a bold, imposing look to go with it.

Azora is a completely new shape in the GM range, and this Limited Edition model is built around a shortened L540 blade with a low swell position and sweeping contours. Together they create a powerful hitting zone, so the bat feels light and quick in the hands yet carries real authority at impact. The F2 face profile and Powerarc bow are designed to help maximise performance through the stroke, giving you a bat that is fast to the ball and powerful through the shot.

A Fuze Grip gives a secure, confident connection between hand and handle, which helps when the pressure is on. Made in England from Prime English Willow, it is a bat for batters who want presence and precision in one package.

GM Limited Edition willow grade

• GM's very best unbleached, seasoned Grade 1 English willow

GM NOW! and ToeTek fitted as standard

GM NOW! means the bat is prepared at the factory before it reaches you:

• Knocked in by GM's own batmakers
• Raw linseed oil applied to hold the moisture level of the blade, which reduces cracking and splitting
• Clear anti-scuff cover fitted to the face and edges to make the blade last longer

ToeTek protects the part of the bat that takes the most punishment:

• DriGuard applied to the toe to resist damp and limit toe swelling
• A specially shaped, resilient shield fitted to the toe
• Cuts down the toe damage and feathering that tapping at the crease often causes
• An extra barrier against damp
