The best bats don’t wait. 💨

Ronit has picked out nine standout bats from the new 2026/27 Gray-Nicolls range.

The new 2026/27 Official Gray-Nicolls cricket bat range has arrived at Players Sports, with one of New Zealand’s biggest selections now available at our Greenlane flagship store and online.

From the iconic Fusion, Vector and Nova 4.0 through to the handcrafted Legend and Silver models, there’s a bat for every style of player and every level of the game.

Our premium Gray-Nicolls bats are handcrafted in Melbourne by the legendary Stuart Kranzbuhler and the expert Gray-Nicolls bat making team (if you know, you know).

Every bat has its own pickup, balance, profile and character. That’s why serious cricketers don’t buy from a spec sheet. They pick the bat that feels right in their hands.

The first shipment always includes some exceptional pieces of willow, and they’re usually the first to disappear. If you’ve been waiting for the new range, now’s the time.

First in. Best willow. 🏁

The first wave of 2026/27 Gray-Nicolls cricket bats has landed at Players Sports Greenlane.

From the legendary Fusion, Silver, Nova 4.0 and more, our latest shipment is now on display and ready to be picked up and compared in person.

Every bat is different. Grain, profile, pickup and ping all vary, which is why many cricketers make the trip to Greenlane to find the one that feels right in their hands.

If you’re thinking about a new bat this season, we’d recommend getting in early. The best pieces of willow rarely stay on the rack for long.

Even better, this is only the beginning. New season cricket bats from Gray-Nicolls, DSC, SS, TON, Kookaburra, Gunn & Moore and more will continue arriving over the coming weeks.

Visit our Greenlane flagship store this weekend to see the latest arrivals, or shop online with fast NZ-wide delivery.

Stay tuned. Cricket season is only just getting started.
