Josh was so welcoming and understanding throughout the whole process. The customisation that goes into your bat is unbelievable. Highly recommend this process to anyone.

My son loved this, he really got alot out of watching his bat get made and the process. It was a real experience, so much better than just going to a shop and getting one over the counter.

Meet the owner

A passion for cricket.
Josh Gavan.

I started JPGavan Cricket when I was 16, in 2012, driven by a passion for the game and a belief that cricketers deserved a more personal bat-making experience. JPGavan specialise in bats handcrafted here in Sydney by our small team. I personally run every in-person workshop session at JPG HQ, so if you visit, you're working with me directly. Online custom orders are handcrafted with the same care by our team of bat makers, trained by me to the same exacting standard. We love working with cricketers of every level, from juniors to internationals, to find and make the bat that's right for them. Every bat is shaped, checked and finished by hand.
