What are the rules regarding the cricket bat?
The bat shall not be more than 38 inches (96.5 cm) in length. The blade of the bat shall be made solely of wood, and shall not be exceed 4.25 inches (10.8 cm) at the widest part.
The blade may be covered with material for protection, strengthening or repair. Such material shall not exceed 1/16 in/1.56 mm in thickness and shall not be likely to cause unacceptable damage to the ball.
Umpires must see to it that the size of the bat conforms to these specifications. A bat must strictly be of this size when there is no binding. It can be wider only if there is binding. Then the extra 1/16 in allowed for that will mean a maximum of 4 and 3/8 inches
