About this bat

The CEAT Hitman Edition is the flagship bat in the CEAT range, built around the playing profile of Rohit Sharma — one of the most destructive openers in modern international cricket. CEAT entered cricket equipment manufacturing in 2014 through their Meerut-based factory, and the Hitman Edition sits at the top of their English willow lineup. Made from Grade 1 English willow with a clean high-grain face, it is designed for players who want to replicate Rohit's characteristic blend of effortless timing and explosive boundary hitting.

The Hitman Edition features a mid-to-low sweet spot and a generous playing area built for confident front-foot driving and authoritative pull shots. The blade carries full, thick edges throughout the hitting zone, and the profile is finished with a low bow that keeps the bat head positioned for maximum coverage on both full and short deliveries. The weight distribution is deliberately front-loaded, providing the momentum through impact that Rohit's game demands — whether clipping off the pads or launching over mid-on.

The Super Drive Flex handle uses a multi-piece cane construction with an engineered flex insert, reducing shock transmission and giving the bat a lively, responsive feel from first contact. As with all English willow bats, oiling and knocking in is required before match use — where bat preparation is enabled, we complete this fully before dispatch so the bat arrives ready to play.

Frequently asked questions

The CEAT Hitman Edition is CEAT's flagship English willow bat, developed in collaboration with Rohit Sharma. CEAT entered cricket equipment manufacturing in 2014 through their Meerut factory. The Hitman Edition is built around Rohit's playing profile — a mid-to-low sweet spot, full blade with generous edges, and a light pick-up that suits both aggressive and timing-based play. It's aimed at serious club players who want a professional-spec bat inspired by one of the game's most accomplished openers.
The Super Drive Flex handle uses a multi-piece cane construction with an engineered flex insert, reducing shock transmission on impact. This gives the bat a livelier, more responsive feel compared to a standard cane handle — particularly noticeable on thick edges and defensive blocks where sting can be an issue.
Yes — all English willow bats require knocking in before match use. If our bat preparation service is enabled, we oil, machine-knock and fit a scuff sheet before dispatch so it arrives ready to play. If preparing it yourself, start with light oiling, leave it to dry overnight, then progress from light to heavy knocking over several sessions.
Yes. Select an extra grip in the add-ons section and we'll fit it to the bat before it leaves us. Available in Gray-Nicolls, GM Terrain and SG Player options.
The Hitman Edition offers Grade 1 English willow and a distinctive Rohit Sharma-specific profile for players who want something different to the mainstream. Where GN bats like the Legend Silver or Classic Players tend to suit a classical, timing-based game, the Hitman Edition's full-profile build and mid-to-low sweet spot positions it firmly for the aggressive, front-foot-dominant batter. If you want advice on which bat suits your game best, message Yaseer on WhatsApp.
Most players find the Hitman Edition plays best between 2lb 7oz and 2lb 9oz. The front-loaded profile means pick-up often feels lighter than the scale weight suggests — a characteristic Rohit Sharma's own bats share. Message Yaseer on WhatsApp for a personalised recommendation based on your playing style.
