Batting Pads Size Charts: Helpful Guidelines

The table above provides a Universal Batting Pads Size Chart, covering sizes from Junior through to Adult, including oversize adult options. It is designed to give you a clear overview of typical batting pad sizing based on player height and leg length in both centimetres and inches. This makes it easier to find the right fit across age groups when shopping online.

However, please note that sizing can vary slightly between brands, so this chart should be used as a general reference only. If a specific product has a brand-supplied size guide, you’ll find it listed in the product description—we recommend referring to that first for the most accurate fit.

Considering More Than Just Size

In addition to leg length, it is also important to consider the material, weight, and intended use of batting pads. For example:

• Traditional cane batting pads – Offer maximum protection with vertical cane reinforcement, ideal for competitive and professional cricket.
• Lightweight foam pads – Easier to wear for juniors, youth players, and casual use; they offer good protection while allowing greater mobility.
• Cloth or hybrid pads – Combine comfort and flexibility, popular in modern limited-overs cricket.

• Adjustable straps – Allow for a customised and secure fit, ensuring the pads stay in position during play.

Choosing the Right Size

• If you’re between sizes or unsure, we generally recommend sizing up for added coverage and comfort.
• For growing juniors, slightly larger pads can extend usability.

• For adults, consider balance: pads should fully cover the knee and shin without restricting running or batting stance.

Why This Guide Matters

We know that finding the right batting pad size can sometimes be a challenge — especially with the wide range of brands, each using their own measurement systems. That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive Batting Pads Size Chart Guide to help you make confident, informed decisions when shopping online with us.

Final Note

This general guide is a helpful starting point, but it’s important to remember that batting pad sizes can vary slightly between brands, styles, and materials. Whenever possible, we strongly recommend checking the brand-specific size guides provided on our product pages for the most accurate fit.

✅ Pro Tips for Measuring Batting Pads

• Measure accurately: From the instep (top of the foot) to the centre of the knee — this provides the most precise sizing for optimal coverage.
• Check fit over the knee: Ensure the pads sit snugly over the knee when strapped, allowing free movement without slipping.
• Adjust strap tightness: Verify that all straps are secure but comfortable; adjustable straps can improve stability and fit.
• Balance protection vs. mobility: Larger pads offer more protection for shins and knees, while lighter or smaller pads allow easier movement and quicker reaction.
• When in doubt, size up: Especially for youth or taller players, sizing up helps ensure full shin and knee coverage without restricting play.

Brand-Specific Size Guides

On our website, you’ll find these brand-specific size guides directly under the product description on each product page. These charts are provided by the manufacturers and are the most accurate reference for that particular brand. If a brand-specific guide is listed, we encourage you to follow it rather than relying solely on this general chart.
