FAQs

Q: Is the Kookaburra 6.1 T20 RED Batting Pad 2025 suitable for junior cricketers?
A: While the Kookaburra 6.1 T20 RED Batting Pad 2025 is listed as an adult size, its Grade 6 quality and entry-level protection make it a suitable option for larger junior players or those transitioning to adult sizes. Always measure from the center of the knee to the instep to ensure a correct fit.

Q: How does the Grade 6 quality affect the level of protection of this pad?
A: A Grade 6 rating indicates that the Kookaburra 6.1 T20 RED Batting Pad 2025 is designed for entry-level use against slower bowling speeds, such as those found in training or lower-grade club matches. For facing professional-level pace, higher-grade pads are recommended.
