What size should my cricket bat be?

Choosing the right cricket bat size is key for control and performance.

Your bat should reach your hip when standing upright and feel comfortable in your grip, with or without batting gloves.

Junior bats range from size 0 to 6, with Harrow for taller juniors, while adults typically use Short Handle or Long Handle bats.

What are cricket bats made of?

Traditional cricket bats are crafted from English willow or Kashmir willow, offering strength, flexibility, and performance.

However, multiple studies have explored bamboo cricket bats, which may be more sustainable and durable while delivering similar power and control.

While willow remains the standard, innovations in materials could shape the future of the game.

What cricket bats do professional players use?

Professional cricketers choose bats based on their playing style and preferences.

Brands like Kookaburra, Gray-Nicolls, DSC, GM, and New Balance supply the pros, with bats tailored for balance and power.

Players often customise weight, handle shape, and grip to suit their technique. Whether you’re attacking or defensive, the right bat helps you perform.
