If our warranty policy covers a defect, we will choose to repair or replace the product at our discretion. If the identical item is not in stock, we will provide a substitute item of equal worth. Please be aware that we do not offer refunds for items that are included in our warranty policy.

Note: We do not take responsibility for any loss or missing packages caused by the service provider. We can take care only if the package is insured by you. Furthermore, it is important to note that our warranty policy applies solely to the original purchaser and is not transferable.
Warranty provided for Cricket Bats:
It is important to understand that cricket bats are prone to breaking due to the nature of the game. While some bats may have longer lifespans, all bats will eventually break. Most companies do not offer warranties on their bats, particularly for the edges and toes, which are the most vulnerable areas. Slight damage such as face cracks or slight dents on bats is considered normal, as English Willow is naturally soft. However, this damage can be minimized with proper preparation, usage, and maintenance. Our knocking-in service is an effective way to prolong the life of your bat and ensure it lasts a little longer.

The warranty is valid only for bats that are found to be defective according to the manufacturer's specifications. If the bat's handle breaks during that period, it will be repaired at no cost. There is no warranty for the edges or the toe of any bat. The warranty covers internal stress cracks that are not visible. Shipping and labour are not covered. Warranty on bats is completely under management discretion.
Areas we address include:
-
Broken Handles
-
Loose Handles
Warranty provided for Cricket Balls:
Cricket balls are manufactured in Pakistan and India, and offer zero warranty on cricket balls, therefore, we cannot offer you any warranty either. As it's the nature of the game where you hit the leather off the ball (literally sometimes), your cricket ball will break from wear and tear eventually. Cheaper balls will deteriorate quicker than expensive ones.
Warranty provided for Other Equipment:
We accept returns made within 10 days from when you receive the product. All items must be in their original packaging and unused. The buyer is responsible for shipping costs. Limited warranty on manufacturing defects carried by the individual brands and defective products inspected by the individual brands. In all cases, shipping and labour are not covered. eg. if a bat handle breaks we will replace the handle for free BUT there is a $40 labour charge and you will need to pay as well as the shipping cost.
Warranty Disclaimer:
Our warranty policy is the sole and exclusive remedy for defects in materials. We do not provide any other warranties, either express or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
