New Balance TC 500 Lightweight Cricket Bat (2027)
The New Balance TC 500 Lightweight Cricket Bat is an entry-level English willow bat, a sensible first step into willow for developing players who want a lighter pick-up.
Made from Grade 5a English willow, this New Balance cricket bat gives younger or newer players a genuine willow blade without moving into premium pricing. The blade is 1cm shorter than the previous Burn range, while the handle is 1cm longer, a combination that helps the bat feel balanced and easy to manoeuvre through the shot.
The semi-oval cane handle blends the benefits of both oval and round shapes, so it feels comfortable in the hands and gives good control. Large edges and a natural finish keep the look clean and traditional, and the New Balance Players white grip comes already fitted, so the bat is ready to take to the nets.
If you are looking for a step up from a softwood bat, the TC 500 Lightweight is a friendly, well-judged option.
