SS Swinger Alum Tanned Cricket Ball

Choosing a cricket ball comes down to who is playing, where you're playing, and whether it's for a match or training.

• Weight: 156g for men's cricket and boys from Under 14. 142g for women's and girls' cricket, and boys in Under 12 and Under 13. Younger kids use a lighter, softer ball.
• 2-piece or 4-piece: 4-piece balls hold their shape longer and are used for senior matches. 2-piece balls are great for training and juniors.
• Colour: red for most club matches, white for coloured-clothing cricket, pink for day-night games. Your competition decides.
• Soft and indoor balls: soft balls suit young kids and the backyard. Indoor cricket has its own ball.
