What is the width of a cricket bat?

The width of a cricket bat can vary depending on the type of bat and the preferences of the player. Generally, the width of a cricket bat ranges between 4.25 inches to 4.5 inches (10.8 cm to 11.4 cm). However, there are some bats that can go up to 4.75 inches (12.1 cm) in width. The International Cricket Council (ICC) has set a standard limit of 4.25 inches (10.8 cm) for the width of all cricket bats used in international matches. The width of the bat plays an important role in determining the balance and weight distribution of the bat and can have a significant impact on the power of the shots played by the batsman.
