Str8bat, a small sensor that attaches to the back of a cricket bat, has the potential to revolutionize batting and has secured investment from Cricket Australia.
IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals have been using data from the sensor for their squad, including English cricketers Jos Buttler and Joe Root and Australian leg-spinner Adam Zampa.
Gagan Daga, inventor and co-founder of Str8bat, believes the sensor device can greatly enhance cricket performance and techniques.
The sensor and app allow batters to record & download data on a range of batting metrics, including ball middle frequency, bat swing speed, impact speed, bat lift angle, and more.
