GM DIAMOND CRICKET BAT 808 - GRADE 2 ENGLISH WILLOW
BS55 - The Ben Stokes Range
The GM Diamond range has been made in conjunction with England captain Ben Stokes, and has been given a dynamic new look for 2024. The bat was originally designed with Ben in mind and the results have been clear to see! His Man of the Match performance in the 2019 World Cup final was just a warm-up for arguably the greatest Test Match innings ever played at Headingley against Australia in the Ashes just a few weeks later, providing two once-in-a-lifetime innings in one summer. Fast forward to a match winning knock in the 2022 T20 World Cup final victory, another Ashes century to go down in history in the epic 2023 home series, and a record individual score for England in the 50 over format! GM bats are undoubtedly Made by England’s Best, for England’s Best.
For 2024, Ben's own unique tattoo design has been incorporated into the English Willow bat labels, giving them a hugely personal touch and distinctive look to set apart the Diamond.
Boasting a large sweet spot, the Diamond allows for unparalleled ball-striking confidence. The shorter blade length also provides fantastic balance, creating a perfect pick up and feel. The mid swell position, traditional full blade profile and flowing contoured spine combine to show off a smooth and well-rounded bat profile, ideal for dynamic stroke-makers.
The Diamond now features the Hex grip, specifically engineered to offer the most grip available on the market, ensuring perfect grip at all times.
With availability in five different grades, there’s a Diamond waiting for you, whatever your budget. Made in England from Prime English Willow.

Return policy
At Cobra Cricket, we offer a 30-day returns policy for unused items returned in their original packaging with tags attached. Refunds or exchanges are available within this period, provided you contact us first at cobracricket1717@gmail.com. Please note that personalized or custom items—including custom bats, knocked-in bats, spiking services, teamwear, and personalized helmets—cannot be returned or refunded unless faulty. Customers are responsible for return postage costs. Cobra Cricket products include warranties depending on the item: UK-made Cobra bats have a 12-month warranty, while pads, gloves, bags, accessories, and spiking services have a 6-month warranty, covering manufacturing defects only (not normal wear, misuse, or damage from play). Proof of purchase is required for all warranty claims.
Warranty
Cricket bats will endure wear and tear due to the natural properties of willow, which can only handle limited stress and strain.
The bat’s lifespan depends on the frequency of use, with more frequent use leading to quicker breakage.
Cobra Cricket bats come with a 12-month warranty, while non-Cobra bats have a 6-month warranty.
Common damages not covered by the warranty include toe damage, edge impacts, water/moisture damage, and damage from low-quality or colored balls.
Proper preparation, such as knocking-in the bat, is essential. Failure to prepare the bat voids the warranty.
Bats used without being properly knocked-in or prepared will not be eligible for warranty coverage.
If claiming warranty, customers must email images of the damage for assessment, but inward postage costs are not covered.
The cause of damage will be assessed based on the nature of damage, general condition, and maintenance.
If the bat is damaged by player-inflicted causes and no material flaw is found, repair work will be chargeable.
Proper bat care and maintenance are crucial for performance and durability; Cobra emphasizes this as the owner's responsibility.
