Meet Paul Bradbury, the man keeping traditional art of cricket bat-making alive

There was a time when all cricket bats were hand-made by highly skilled master craftsmen.
Machines and mass production now dominate the process.
But an Australian company is still making them the old way, and they have some high-profile clients.
Paul Bradbury has been doing the job for 25 years.

In Jalandhar and Meerut lots of small and medium companies still make bats in traditional ways and price very from 10$ to 300$ so nothing new for us in India.

Vijay Visweswaran No benefits at all and before you start... It's not like they just throw any type of wood, damaged or not into the machine. Same with guitars.

Vijay Visweswaran Both in India and Pakistan traditional bats are made according to your own customisations...
