Choosing the right cricket bat can make or break your game. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned player, understanding the key factors that influence bat performance is essential.
Keep reading, and we’ll walk you through everything you need to know before you buy a cricket bat, and why so many cricketers are turning to Trogon Cricket for bats that combine performance, craftsmanship, and reliability.
When selecting your ideal bat, the most important factors to consider are your age, height, playing level, and personal style.
Beginners typically benefit from lighter bats with mid-profile blades, which are ideal for all-around stroke play.
Experienced club players may lean towards more specialised profiles, such as low middles for front-foot play or high middles if they play on quicker boucier pitches.
Juniors and women cricketers often require custom weight or size adjustments, something Trogon offers with all handmade bats.
At Trogon, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Each of our English willow cricket bats is handmade in our Sussex workshop, and we even offer custom options to suit your unique batting style and preferences.
A common question we hear is: what size cricket bat do I need? It all depends on your height.
If you're looking to buy a cricket bat, you’ll see both English and Kashmir willow options. Here’s the difference:
English willow is softer and more responsive, giving better performance and ping and is the best cricket bat to buy.
Kashmir willow is harder and cheaper, often used in entry-level bats.
Trogon specialises in English willow cricket bats, sourced directly and graded by hand. Whether you're buying a bat for a child or a county-level cricketer, our bats are built for elite performance.
Bat grades can be confusing, but we make it simple:
At Trogon, we offer all these grades across every size. And because we hand-select our willow, you can be assured of consistency and value.
Big-name brands dominate the market, such as Grey-Nicolls, GM, Kookaburra, SS TON, and DSC. But what sets Trogon apart is that we’re not just another retailer. We’re bat makers. We make our own bats using traditional tools and years of experience.
Each Trogon bat is handcrafted in our workshop in West Sussex. We don't just stock big brands, we are the brand. That’s why more players are choosing to buy a cricket bat from Trogon, and something we are really proud of.
