Cricket Bats

Cricket Bats

While choosing a right bat, there are some points which you should keep in mind like your age, your height, your batting style, bat size, bat weight, willow type, bat’s balance, and off course the budget. We will suggest you choose the bat according to your needs, if you are kid then choose long handle bat, if adult then choose short handle bat; if you want low budget then Kashmir willow bat is best suitable for beginners or casual players; if you want top quality bat then English willow will be the perfect choice if budget is no bar. Apart from this it will be helpful of you test the bat personally at the shop itself or if you are planning to buy bat online then thoroughly check all the details and customer reviews before buying. If you are member of any cricket academy then you can consult your coach or mentor, who can help you chose the right bat for you. At last but not the least, do not compromise with the comfort, it may take time to find which bat is more comfortable for you, so take your time, test different bats and then finally make your decision.

Cricket Balls

Cricket Ball

Choosing right cricket ball is also as important as choosing the right bat. There are different types of ball like red, pink and white colour according to different type of cricket matches they are used in. Apart from this one should also consider some conditions like the pitch condition(grass, artificial or cemented surface), budget and the purpose before buying the cricket ball. Tightly stitched, proper weight (5.5 to 5.75 ounce), quality of the core material, leather quality, and seam are some of the important factors which one should consider before buying the right ball.  High quality balls are little bit costlier but provide durability and good performance on the cricket ground.
