Cricket Batting Pads Guide India

Batting pads should protect the front of the leg while allowing normal stance, running and movement. Correct knee-roll position is the key fit check.

Measure kneecap to instep

Use the Batting Pad Size Calculator and measure from the centre of the kneecap to the instep.

Knee-roll alignment

The knee roll should stay centred over the kneecap in the player’s normal batting stance.

Handedness

Some pads are shaped for right- or left-handed batters. Choose the matching variant when the product is handed.

Junior fit

A pad that is too long can catch while running and sit incorrectly at the knee. Choose current fit rather than room to grow.
