The details that matter.
MRF Genius Chase Master English Willow Cricket Bat is a high-end Short Handle bat built around a pronounced swell and an enlarged hitting area. MRF describes the Chase Master as being crafted from premium English willow, with an optimised blade, enhanced sweet spot and a handle-and-grip setup designed to keep the bat controlled through the swing.
Why the Chase Master Stands Out
- Premium English willow construction
- Big swell designed to increase the effective sweet-spot area
- Optimised blade profile for powerful stroke play
- Balanced handle and grip arrangement for control through pickup and downswing
- Senior Short Handle size in this listing
Best Suited For
Experienced club and competitive batters who like a substantial hitting profile but still want the bat to feel controlled in the hands. It suits players who score strongly through drives and cross-batted shots and want a generous contact area through the middle.
Bat Preparation
This is a natural English willow bat. Before facing a hard leather ball, check the bat's preparation and complete any oiling, knocking-in or protective-facial work that is still required. Our workshop can also prepare new bats if you want it match-ready before use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size is this bat?
This listing is for Senior Short Handle.
Is the Chase Master designed around power or pickup?
Its standout feature is the larger swell and enhanced sweet spot, but MRF also specifies an optimised blade and controlled handle/grip setup rather than simply making the bat as large as possible.
Will every bat have identical grains and weight?
No. English willow is a natural material, so grain structure, weight and cosmetic appearance vary from bat to bat.

Care and common questions
How should I care for this product?
Follow the bat manufacturer’s oiling, knocking-in and storage instructions. Introduce natural-willow bats gradually to hard-ball use; a workshop service does not guarantee immediate match readiness. Avoid excessive oil, damp storage and direct heat. Check face, edges and toe after play.
How do I choose the right size?
Choose pickup, not just appearance.
Use player height with the bat-size calculator, then consider comfortable pickup, playing level and ball type. Natural willow varies between individual bats. Approximate weight, grains, handle construction and included cover are only as stated in the product details. Email us for individual-bat weight and photos before ordering.
Open sizing help ↗Can I confirm individual product details?
Email info@nzcricketstore.com with the product name and selected variant. Ask about individual photographs, bat weight, materials or compatibility before placing the order.
When will it arrive?
Delivery costs and options appear at checkout. Orders normally take one business day to process before dispatch; workshop preparation and product availability can add time.
