What Size Cricket Bat Do I Need

What Size Cricket Bat Do I Need?

If you're asking yourself, what size cricket bat do I need?, you're in the right place. Whether you're buying for a budding junior, a teenage all-rounder, or you're a senior player looking to upgrade, choosing the correct bat size is essential to getting the best out of your game. At Trogon Cricket, we hand-make English willow bats for all ages, heights, and experience levels, so there's always a perfect fit waiting for you.

Why Choosing the Right Size Cricket Bat Matters

The size of your cricket bat affects everything—your stance, your swing, your balance, and your confidence at the crease. Too big, and you'll struggle with control. Too small, and you’ll lose power. That’s why our collection is tailored for cricketers of all ages, heights, and playing styles.

From our size 3 cricket bats for the youngest players, right through to full adult short handle bats for experienced cricketers, every Trogon bat is expertly made from the finest English willow. Whether you’re shopping for Grade 3 value, Grade 2 consistency, Grade 1 quality, or Players Grade elite performance—we have you covered.

Who Our Cricket Bats Are Perfect For

Every cricketer is different, and we know how important it is to find a bat that feels right in your hands and suits your stage of development. Whether you’re picking up a bat for the first time, preparing for your next club season, or replacing an old favourite, we’ve made it easy to find exactly what you need. Our bats are trusted by junior, ladies, and adult cricketers alike—and with so many sizes and weights available, you’ll never need to compromise on feel, balance, or power.

Our collection is ideal for cricketers who:

• 🏏 Are new to cricket and need guidance on the right bat to start with

All Sizes Covered – Find Your Perfect Fit

Although the bullet points below reference age groups as a general guide, we always recommend choosing your cricket bat based on height wherever possible. Height provides a more accurate and personalised fit, ensuring that each cricketer gets the best pick-up, control, and performance from their bat. If you're unsure, use age as a rough starting point, but do check our size chart or get in touch for more tailored advice.
