What Is English Willow?

English Willow (Salix Alba Caerulea) is a soft, fibrous wood grown primarily in England. Its:

• Lightweight grain structure
• Natural moisture content
• Shock-absorbing properties

make it ideal for making professional-level cricket bats. It offers:

• Greater power on impact
• Better response from the sweet spot
• A satisfying sound and feel upon contact with the ball
