Why did the cricket bats were roughly the
same shape as hockey sticks during eighteenth century?
Answer: During eighteenth century, in the game of cricket, the ball was bowled underarm, along the ground and the curve at the end of the hockey-like bat gave the batsman the best chance
of making contact.
That's why the bats were looked like hockey sticks at that time.
