SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat – Premium Grade 1 English Willow
The SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat is crafted from premium Grade 1 handpicked English willow, featuring straight, clean grains that are the hallmark of top-tier willow selection. Named after Indian all-rounder Axar Patel, this bat is built to deliver the kind of dependable, powerful hitting that has made him a valuable presence in the middle order for India across formats.
Full-Profile Beast Style Shaping
This bat features a full-profile “beast” style with little-to-no concaving and a semi-duckbill shape for optimal balance. This design philosophy favours batters who want maximum wood behind the ball across the full face, rather than an aggressively scooped-out profile, giving a generous sweet spot and forgiving performance on shots that are not middled perfectly.
Weight and Pickup
The SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat weighs approximately 1,145 to 1,218 grams (around 2 lb 10 oz), but has been engineered with a well-balanced weight distribution so that it feels noticeably lighter, around 1,180 grams, when picked up. This balance allows batters to generate genuine power from the full-profile design while still maintaining fast bat speed through the crease.
Thicker Shock-Absorbing Handle
A thicker, shock-absorbing oval multi-piece cane handle provides enhanced stroke control and a secure grip. This handle construction reduces the vibration transferred to the hands on off-centre hits, helping batters maintain control and comfort even through a long innings against quick bowling.
What’s Included
The SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat comes ready to knock in and play, and pairs well with a quality bat cover to protect your investment during transport and storage. Before using any new bat in match conditions, refer to the official MCC Laws of Cricket for bat dimension regulations.

Caring for Your English Willow Bat
To maximise the life and performance of your SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat, knock it in gradually with a mallet or old ball before facing a hard new ball in match play. This compresses the willow fibres and helps prevent early cracking or damage. Regular light oiling of the face and edges, avoiding play in wet or damp conditions, and storing the bat in a cool, dry place will help preserve the clean grains and full-profile shape that make this bat such a reliable performer season after season.
Why Choose the SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat
For batters who want a full-bodied, forgiving profile combined with genuine Grade 1 English willow and a comfortable, shock-absorbing handle, the SG Axar Patel AX 20 offers a compelling package. Its association with one of Indian cricket’s most reliable all-rounders reflects the bat’s focus on consistent, dependable performance rather than gimmicky design.

A Bat Built Around a Modern All-Rounder’s Game
Axar Patel has established himself as one of the most dependable all-rounders in Indian cricket, valued for his composed lower-middle-order batting and his ability to accelerate the scoring rate when required. The AX 20 bat that carries his name reflects those qualities: a full-profile design that rewards positive intent and clean hitting, paired with a weight distribution that keeps the bat manageable even when batters need to play through the gears late in an innings. It is a strong choice for cricketers who value substance and reliability in their equipment over flashy but less forgiving profiles.
Choosing the Right Bat Weight
At an effective feel of around 1,180 grams, the SG Axar Patel AX 20 Bat sits in a comfortable range for most adult club and school-level batters. This weight allows for confident stroke play through the line without sacrificing the bat speed needed to adjust to short-pitched or quicker deliveries. Batters who prefer a fuller-profile bat but are wary of excess weight will find the engineered balance of this bat particularly appealing.
