- Kookaburra Ghost Pro Cricket Bat – Made with Grade 1 unbleached English willow, this bat is made for the all-rounder batsman. The “ghost” like feature of this bat is the extraordinary power it gives to the batsman, enabling him to send the ball flying across the ground and bagging runs. It has a full profile design, thick edges and a large sweet spot. Though big and powerful, this bat picks up like a dream. The round powerdrive handle and wave grip design made it very easy and comfortable to hold and swing the bat.
