Speed. Precision. Ruthlessness.

The Rival doesn’t play to participate – it plays to win.

Every detail in the Rival’s design is engineered for impact. Its bold chequered-flag livery is a statement of intent – fast, aggressive, and built to dominate from first ball to last.

Crafted for players who play on the edge, the Rival delivers high-performance output through a low swell profile, explosive pick-up, and a shape that thrives under pressure. This is a bat for competitors – not passengers.

No hesitation. No looking back. The Rival is Built To Win.

The Rival also features a new Apex grip, delivering traction and peak grip performance when it counts most.

One of a host of 2026 English Willow bats that carry a striking new design, the Rival features the traditional L555 blade length, a low swell, and a clean, powerful profile tailored for boundary-hunters.
