{"product_id":"em-nova-blast-english-willow-cricket-bat","title":"EM Nova Blast English Willow Cricket Bat","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe EM Nova Blast brings genuine hand-selected English willow to the crease at an accessible price point, making it a great entry into premium bat performance. Built with a high-grade willow cleft and 6-8 straight grains, the blade delivers the crisp ping and consistent rebound English willow is known for, without the premium-tier price tag.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Nova Blast's mid-to-low profile and gently curved blade extend the sweet spot lower down the face, so both front-foot drives and back-foot punches find the middle more often. A semi-oval cane handle absorbs shock through impact and keeps the pickup light and manoeuvrable in the hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeighing in around the typical short-handle mark once finished, this is a genuinely balanced bat for club and school-level batters who want English willow feel and rebound without stepping up to EM's flagship 360 or SAI ranges.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EM","offers":[{"title":"Short Handle","offer_id":54655064080608,"sku":null,"price":379.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/4335\/5104\/files\/img_9882.jpg?v=1788430285","url":"https:\/\/akscricket.com.au\/products\/em-nova-blast-english-willow-cricket-bat","provider":"AKS CRICKET","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
