If you’re the kind of cricketer who cares about performance, feel, and balance – then you’re in the right place. Our collection of adult cricket bats is made for players who want more than just a bat – they want something that elevates their game at the crease. Whether you're smashing it to the rope or nudging it through the covers, every short handle bat here is built to meet the demands of modern cricketers.
Each bat in this range has been individually handmade in our Trogon workshop using traditional tools, careful craftsmanship, and the finest quality English willow. From the seasoned pro to the Sunday league battler, we’ve got a blade that’ll feel like it was made just for you – because, in many ways, it is.
This entire collection has been shaped around real cricketers and real cricket. We don’t mass produce, we make each bat with a player in mind. So, who are our adult cricket bats ideal for?
All of our short handle bats are made to suit adult players generally between 5’8” and 6’1” in height. If that sounds like you – and you’re serious about your cricket – you’ll find your next bat right here.
We don’t follow trends. We follow tradition – and we back it with performance. Every adult cricket bat in this collection is individually made by hand using a cleft of English willow that has been naturally dried and chosen for its grain structure, balance, and potential.
We press our bats for performance, not mass production. Each one is handled by a real bat maker, checked for balance and ping, and finished by hand so it feels ready from the moment it arrives.
When you choose a Trogon bat, you’re getting something that’s been made with real intention. We know what cricketers need – because we are cricketers ourselves.
Every batter has a different style, and we’ve created this collection to reflect that. Whether you like to dominate the bowling attack with power and aggression, or whether you prefer touch, placement, and timing – there’s something here to suit your strengths.
Our short handle bats typically range between 2lb 8oz and 2lb 11oz, but lighter and heavier bats are always available upon request. Whatever your setup, we’ll help you find a bat that feels right from the first net session.

We don’t compromise on materials or process. From spine height to edge size, from toe to shoulder – every detail is shaped by hand with performance in mind.

And if you’re not sure which bat to go for, just drop us a message. We’re happy to recommend a shape, weight, or style that fits your game. We’ve helped hundreds of cricketers across the country find their perfect fit – and we can do the same for you.
If you’re ready to raise your game, this is the place to start. Choose your bat from our adult collection and experience the feel of true English willow, shaped by hand and made with passion. Every bat is a one-off. No two are the same – and that’s exactly how it should be.

Most adult cricketers use a Short Handle bat, which suits players between 5'8" and 6'1". For taller or shorter players, custom sizing (Long handle or Harrow) or other bat lengths might be more appropriate, but short handle is the standard for adult play.
Yes – a bat that’s too light might lack the power needed for aggressive stroke play. However, many players prefer a lighter bat for quicker hands and improved control. It's all about finding the right balance that suits your style.
Adult bats typically range from 2lb 8oz to 2lb 11oz. Lighter bats are great for control and fast reactions, while heavier bats offer more power. It’s important to find a weight that complements your technique and strength.
Grade 1 and Grade 1+ willow bats offer top-quality grain structure and performance, ideal for regular or high-level cricketers. Grade 2 provides excellent value with minor visual blemishes. Grade 3 bats are perfect for casual or developing players wanting durability without the premium price tag.
Absolutely. Short handle bats are the go-to choice for most adult beginners and seasoned players alike. They offer the perfect balance for learning proper technique while still delivering performance and comfort at the crease.
