Buying Guide For Cricket Bats

• Size:  There are two parts to a cricket bat – blade and handle. Choosing the right bat size as per your height is the trick to fetch the right bad for yourself. If you are above 16 years of age then most likely a full-size bat would be right for you. This is an approximation, however; and if you are younger than 14 years then a medium size would work. Best is to step into a store and try out the options available to figure out the right one.
• Weight of the bat: English willow is lighter but it gives you more power, while Kashmiri willow is heavier. So choose a bat depending on the type of weight you like and are comfortable with.
• Quality of willow: Willow is the type of wood that these bats are made from. There are two types of willows – English willow and Kashmiri willow. English willow is the preferred kind for professional players whereas a Kashmiri willow is good for beginners.
• Grains: The lines on the plain side of the bat are called grains. The more the grains the older the willow, which also means higher the performance.
