SmartCricket joins hands with Delhi Bulls in Abu Dhabi T10 League
As per the report by Insidesport, SmartCricket's partnership with the Delhi Bulls sees international cricketers like Dwayne Bravo, and his teammates playing with Batsense, SmartCricket bat sensor which has the power to provide a wide range of data for every shot played. BatSense showcases data about the bat speed, back lift angle, follow-through angle, bat speed at impact and a host of other batting parameters. It is driven by an Intel-powered chip that ensures data accuracy and high-performance data results.
BatSense is the first step in a comprehensive roadmap of cutting-edge cricket technology that the company is creating in its mission to revolutionise the game. Similar smart devices are under development for measuring performance through other cricketing equipment including ball, helmet and shoes. Bull skipper Bravo had all the praise for the technology stating that sometimes one thinks that he has played a perfect shot and timed it perfectly, but with BatSense you can know for sure about how well the shot was which is amazing.
