For Paul Borst, founding and growing D&P Cricket has never been just about making bats; it’s been about embodying relentless drive, uncompromising quality, and lifelong dedication to the sport.

From early mornings in Cape Town to journeys across the world, Paul has consistently pushed boundaries:

Flying to India at least twice a year to meet suppliers and explore emerging innovations in equipment design and performance.

Making annual pilgrimages to the UK to deepen ties with wood yards so that the finest English Willow clefts can be secured for every bat.

These aren’t just business trips. They’re investments in craftsmanship, in ensuring every D&P bat delivers the balance, power, and integrity serious cricketers demand.



𝘼𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙:

• Hand-craftsmanship rooted in skill and experience; every bat shaped with insight, every blade selected with care.

• A team who live and breathe the sport, ready to offer honest advice and support.

• An unshakable commitment to customer satisfaction; building a full-service brand where quality and care meet performance.


Because for Paul and everyone at D&P Cricket, it’s never enough to simply build a bat. It’s about building bats that reflect the aspirations of those who swing them. Bats that respond to ambition. Bats that carry pride.
