Choosing A Cricket Bat
The cricket bat is one of the most essential pieces of equipment in your cricket bag, so choosing the correct size bat is key to your success as a batter. It is important that the cricket bat is not too long or too heavy to hinder the players technique. We have a wide selection of cricket bats from the best brands including Kookaburra, Gray Nicolls, New Balance and Gunn & Moore. For younger players, we stock a selection of Junior cricket bats in various sizes and for all ages.
