This product features advanced sensor technology and is designed for high-level precision, revolutionizing the way batting data is captured, analyzed, and utilized—all without changing the bat’s feel or design. The ultra-thin, lightweight bat sticker incorporates str8bat’s proprietary Gen-AI technology, providing real-time feedback on bat speed, swing angles, impact zones, and more in an invisible, intuitive, and customizable format.
Alongside its launch, str8bat announced its expansion into 10 countries, targeting emerging cricket markets such as India, Canada, New Zealand, the United States, Australia, South Africa, the UK, and Trinidad & Tobago, among others. This expansion aims to empower young athletes globally. Madhu Sudan, Co-Founder of str8bat, stated, “Our aim has always been to make elite-level cricket analytics accessible to every player. With the launch of str8bat Classic and the new str8bat Pro sticker, we have accomplished this. The Pro’s ultra-light sensor, developed over several months, perfectly integrates with the bat’s shape and weight, offering unmatched accuracy without altering the bat’s feel.
From assisting players at Rajasthan Royals in enhancing their power-hitting to being recognized by Cricket Australia as a standard for batting analysis, str8bat is transforming the understanding of the game. With over 20,000 units sold and a growing global presence, starting with our initial success in Hyderabad, this marks just the beginning of our efforts to help cricketers improve faster, wherever they play.” The ultra-thin, ultra-light str8bat Pro, available through an annual subscription, also offers access to Masterclasses with Julian Wood, National Batting Coach for Sri Lanka, and Nandan Phadnis, High Performance Coach at India’s Centre of Excellence.
