Kookaburra Ghost Pro 6.0 Cricket Batting Gloves
The Kookaburra Ghost Pro 6.0 Cricket Batting Gloves are entry-level junior batting gloves designed for young cricketers developing their game. Finished in the traditional White Ghost styling, they combine sausage-style finger protection with a one-piece protected thumb, leather palm and soft lining to provide the essential protection and comfort needed for junior cricket.
The Traditional Sausage Styling provides padded coverage across the fingers with the classic construction associated with cricket batting gloves. The clean White Ghost design also makes these an easy match with any cricket bat or other protective equipment.
A One Piece Thumb Protection section provides additional coverage to the bottom-hand thumb, an area that can be particularly exposed when facing the bowler. Selecting the correct right or left handed version is therefore important to ensure this protection sits on the appropriate hand.
The Leather Palm with Airflow Ventilation is a useful feature at this level. The leather provides the main contact surface against the bat handle, while airflow ventilation works with the Breathable Airflow Mesh Gusset to help manage heat inside the gloves.
Inside the gloves, a Super Soft Lining provides additional comfort for young players. A towelling wristband creates a comfortable contact point around the wrist, while the Secure Velcro Closure allows the gloves to be fastened firmly before batting.
Who are the Ghost Pro 6.0 Batting Gloves best for?
The Kookaburra Ghost Pro 6.0 Batting Gloves are best for junior cricketers looking for an entry-level batting glove with traditional protection and a leather palm. They cover the core requirements for developing players without the more extensive reinforced protection found in higher-level Ghost batting gloves.
What should you consider before buying?
The Ghost Pro 6.0 is an entry-level model, so players progressing into higher grades or regularly facing quicker bowling should consider whether a higher-specification glove with additional finger, thumb and sidebar protection is more appropriate.
Correct size and batting orientation are also important. The Ghost Pro 6.0 is available in three junior sizes, and the additional thumb protection needs to be positioned on the player's bottom hand.
