HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE CRICKET BAT

Which Cricket Bat Size Is Right for Me?

Cricketers and top coaches all agree that picking the right cricket bat size is critical for young players’ technical development. A bat that is overly long or, more crucially, too heavy can impede good stroke play and technique, especially for cross-bat shots such as the draw and the cut.

 Monitoring Growth and Development

To solve this, junior bats are made to be smaller and lighter. It’s critical to select a bat that fits the young player’s size, strength, and stage of development.

Young players are sometimes tempted to choose a larger, heavier bat because they believe it would improve their performance and allow them to hit the ball further. Furthermore, parents, particularly those unfamiliar with cricket, may focus on the cost of bats and contemplate purchasing a size or two larger with the expectation that their child will “grow into it.”

However, it is critical to progressively raise the bat size and weight in line with the player’s development. Estimating full-grown height, which is typically indicated by the parents’ height, might provide useful help in this procedure.

Expert Advice

At B3, we work with parents and coaches to ensure that young players receive the appropriate bat size and weight. Here’s our Cricket Bat Size Guide. This guide is a basic reference, and there are several deviations, particularly for players who are much taller or shorter than the average. This is where our customized and tailored services may help.
