Kookaburra Diablo Limited Edition Cricket Bat
The Kookaburra Diablo Limited Edition cricket bat is a players-shaped bat designed for cricketers who want strong hitting power and a confident pick up.
Originally released in 2003, the Diablo earned its reputation through its distinctive shape and powerful response. This limited edition version keeps the same contoured power swell profile that made the bat famous, while refining the balance for the modern game.
In match conditions the Diablo is built to drive the ball hard through the infield and clear the boundary when you commit to the shot. The full profile and enlarged sweet spot help deliver strong contact even when you are slightly off centre, while the rounded face supports clean stroke play across the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the sweet spot high or mid on the Diablo bat?
The Diablo has a full profile with an enhanced sweet spot designed for strong all round stroke play. It suits players who score both through the off side and leg side.
What makes the Diablo shape different from other Kookaburra cricket bats?
The Diablo uses a contoured power swell profile. This shape increases mass in the hitting zone to generate stronger hitting power while maintaining a balanced pickup.
Does the bat need knocking in before use?
Yes. Like most English willow cricket bats, the Diablo Limited Edition should be properly knocked in before match play to compress the fibres and reduce the risk of damage.
What is the benefit of the oval handle?
An oval handle helps guide your top hand and improves bat control. Many players find it useful for keeping the bat face aligned during drives and pull shots.
