Amar Shah reviewed the new lineup of New Balance DC series model cricket bats in this video. These bats focus on lightweight pickup and a consistent profile throughout the lineup. As the name suggests, Dynamic Cricket DC. The branding symbolizes the active and focused play with a Navy Blue and Orange combination all over the bat. Dipesh handpicked these bats from the India New Balance factory, which are now available at The Cricket Store Online.
These bats have a consistent profile with thick toes and shoulders to counterbalance their weight. These bats are very well-balanced and provide light pickup. All of these are reviewed in order. The following bat reviewed is an upgrade to the previous one.

The NB DC 590 is the first on the budget lineup made from SH grade 4 Willow. Although it is a budget bat, it has lots of grain and a spotless front face. It has a consistent, almost full profile and a mid-to-low sweet spot. The big semi-rounded handle and a thick shoulder balance the whole weight nicely and provide a great pickup.
New Balance DC 640+ Cricket Bat 2022.
The NB DC 640+ is made from SH grade 3 willow. A spotless face with many straight and dark grains to the bottom. Again a very consistent profile with mid to low sweet spot with large thick edges and a swell bow. For the grade 3 English willow, it pings phenomenal.

The NB DC 840+ is a hand-selected cricket bat with a beautiful clean front face having dark and equidistant grains on them.

Again, the profile consistently has a mid to low sweet spot with thick and bulky edges.
