Kookaburra Ghost 6.1 Cricket Pads (2027)

The Kookaburra Ghost 6.1 Cricket Pads are entry-level batting pads for players who are new to the game or building up their experience and want dependable protection without a big outlay.

Part of Kookaburra's Grade 6 range, these pads are built around medium-density foam and traditional cane, with lightweight cane and foam rods running through the front. The three-piece knee roll features ergonomic bolsters, which help the pads hold their shape through plenty of use. Inside, a Duo Flex knee roll and a Tri-Flex integral shin bolster, both cotton faced, add comfort and internal impact protection where it counts.

Down at the foot, the durable Tough Scuff instep is made to cope with the wear that comes from regular batting, and the facing is a grain PVC. Secure fastening comes from 25mm hook and loop straps at the calf, thigh and ankle. The pads are ambidextrous, so they suit both right and left-handed batters.

A sensible choice for juniors, club newcomers and anyone after straightforward, well-made protection at the crease.
