The height of handle of the cricket bat is one-third the total length, creating a sweet spot at the lower end of the bat, but now per the new design it is constructed such that the sweet spot spans across its entire length.
A.The height of handle of the cricket bat is one-third the total length, creating a sweet spot at the lower end of the bat, but now per the new design it is constructed - Unnecessary lengthy & fails to convey the meaning. Incorrect
B.Per the current design, the height of handle of the cricket bat is one-third the total length and it creates a sweet spot at the lower end of the bat, but now per the new design it is constructed - Lacks parallelism in the the 2nd highlighted portion as Design is followed by Bat in 2nd part but Height in the 1st part. Incorrect.
C.Previously designed such that the height of its handle was one-third its total length, was creating a sweet spot at its lower end, the cricket bat is now constructed - Use of WAS before a modifier creates a Run-on. Incorrect.
D.Previously designed such that the height of its handle was one-third its total length, creating a sweet spot at its lower end, the cricket bat is now constructed - Absolutely Correct
E.Previously designed such that the height of its handle was one-third its total length, creating a sweet spot at its lower end, the cricket bat now constructed - Initial modifier is absolutely correct but the Independent clause lacks Verb, creating a Fragment. Incorrect.
Hope the explanation will help many

Can you please help me with that how we can identify that 'it' in A doesn't have clear antecedent. I always get confused with that.
Thanks in advance.
