GM

GM cricket bat grips, sold singly or in a zipper pack of 3.

GM grips come in a resealable zipper pack of 3, in orange and yellow, and you can also buy a single grip. The pack of 3 is handy if you have more than one bat, or want a spare ready for when your grip starts to slip.

A fresh grip is the cheapest way to make an old bat feel good again, and most players replace the grip long before the bat. GM grips stretch over standard cricket bat handles, so they fit tape ball bats too.

To fit a grip, roll it inside out, slide it onto a grip cone (or use a little talc on the handle) and roll it down evenly from the top of the handle. Trim any extra at the bottom. A smooth, tight fit gives better control than a loose or twisted grip.

Store spare grips flat and out of the sun so the rubber stays soft. For other colours and dozen packs, see our Saki, TM and German grips.
