One of the world’s oldest and most respected cricket brands, Gunn & Moore have been at the forefront of bat design since 1885.
That was the year Nottingham-born England batter William Gunn partnered with local businessman Thomas James Moore to form GM, and so began a mission to create the best cricket bats ever seen.
Known for his scientific approach to batting at the crease, Gunn applied the same philosophy to batmaking, recruiting skilful crafters to create his vision of the perfect bat by way of painstaking processes.
Fast-forward a century, and that idea holds true today: while GM still use expert crafters to check and finish their bats, the initial shaping of the wood is performed by machine.
Custom-engineered specifically for making bats, the five-axis cutters at GM’s Nottingham factory use computer-aided manufacturing to produce blades with absolute precision. So, when you order a GM bat, you already know exactly what you’re getting. And the next time, and the next time.
Gunn & Moore’s bats have been used by greats of the game throughout their history, all the way through to modern-day England hero Ben Stokes, who uses the Diamond to devastating effect. And thanks to their DXM manufacturing processes, you can have exactly the same profile as Stokes if you so desire. “Play with the best” is the GM strapline – why wouldn’t you?

Gunn & Moore Devon Conway Player Edition Cricket Bat
Display the full spectrum of your shotmaking abilities with the Gunn & Moore Chroma Players Cricket Bat in White/Black, a specially made edition of the Chroma crafted to the New Zealand star’s exact specifications.
Designed to suit Devon Conway’s 360-degree style of play, the Gunn & Moore Chroma Players Cricket Bat features a full profile that’s built for big hits.
There’s no concaving here, so wherever you strike with the sweeping mid-blade swell, the ball’s going to fly away to the rope. Instead, the Chroma saves weight at the bottom of the bat, tapering sharply at the toe for a pleasingly light pickup – ideal if you like to dominate off the back foot as well as the front. The distinctive Powerarc bow gives a boost to lofted shots whether you’re smashing it back over the bowler or slog sweeping for six.
Iridescent chrome-effect stickers give the Chroma an eye-catching look worthy of its name, while a new Pro-Lite Grip – GM’s lightest ever – enhances feel in the hand while maintaining control.

Grade 1
Top-of-the-range, premium willow selected for its performance and looks. Bats made with Grade One willow usually feature at least six visible grains on the face, and the grains should be straight. You may find some red wood on the edge of the blade, and there might be the odd knot or speck on the edge or the back, but the playing surface should be clean.
Please note that these are typical characteristics. While we work closely with our partner brands to provide the best bats for you, we are unable to guarantee a specific number of grains or the overall appearance of the willow on individual bats.
