Cricket Bat Size Guide

Cricketers and all top coaches agree with suppliers and manufacturers that choosing the correct size bat is vital for the proper technical development of young cricketers. It is important that the bat is not too long and more importantly not too heavy to hinder correct stroke play and good technique, this applies to female cricketers too. Junior bats are scaled down in size and weight to meet this important requirement.
