Kookaburra Super Match

Advantages: Durable, Light, comes pre-knocked in
Disadvantages: Weak Toe

...The Kookaburra Ultimate Belta, the name says it all. I've previously owned kookaburra bats, but this is the meatiest and lightest one I have used. It looks nice yes, but the most important thing about this bat is that it feels comfortable to use and performs well. It is the most reliable bat I have taken to the crease with me in my 12 year career, it has lasted me almost 18months for use both indoor and outdoor against red/white cricket balls in matches and red/yellow balls in the bowling machine. ( At speeds varying from 50m.p.h to 95m.p.h) The only down side to this bat is its toe, but all bats have weak toes. If you catch it at the bottom of the bat it will vibrate through quite alot. Overall, a solid - value for money bat.... Read review

Advantages: swing a mile, can help all types of bowling to progress.
Disadvantages: doesn't last for long, poor quality

...This ball is certainly nothing to write about as i believe this is a good product to start with but it wears really quickly. Although if your an opening bowler then this would be a very good ball to use, although with the ball becoming softer then if your a spinner who is likley to come in and bowl later in an innings then maybe this would be perfect for you. Although i haven't really said too many good things about this ball, this is mainly because when i brought this ball i also brought a kookaburra test and with comparing them i would defently recommend that the kookaburra would be my first choice. BUT swing bowlers this Slazenger is the ball for you. The ball does look good but don't get mislead by this, as this is a problem that occurs a lot. From my experience i have tried many different types of ball but this ball is certiantly... Read review

Advantages: Chunky, Light, A hitters delight
Disadvantages: Not for the defensive/classical player, bat-power comes too easily

...not. It is therefore a great thing for Kookaburra that the were able to make this a relatively light weight and easy pick up. A sign that the game is developing at a real pace. Ok so once you have enjoyed checking out the bats size and weight it is time to give it a go. Cue a trip to a net session, or a team traning session or for those crazy enough to do so, straight into a match situation. I personally prefer to try it out in the nets first. I found that when I connected properly, i.e. hitting the middle of the bat (the sweet spot) it was going much greater distances with more ease than before even with maintaining the same level of balance as previous. Although this sounds great in principle, in my very first match using this I lofted the ball into the leg side just trying to get a single or maybe two runs and due to the extra... Read review
