FAQs
Are these pads suitable for senior players?
The Kookaburra Prism 750 Batting Pads are specifically designed for youth cricketers. Senior players may require pads with more advanced protection and support.
How do I determine the correct size?
While these are youth pads, ensure a snug fit by adjusting all straps. The pad should cover the knee and extend down the shin comfortably without restricting movement.
Can these pads be used for bowling protection?
These pads are designed for batting. While they offer shin protection, they are not intended for use as bowling-specific protective gear.
How do I clean the pads?
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the pads in water.
What is the 'Duo Flex Knee Roll'?
The Duo Flex Knee Roll is an internal component designed to provide flexible cushioning and impact absorption specifically around the knee area.
Are the straps interchangeable?
The straps are typically attached securely. While they are adjustable, they are not designed to be easily removed or interchanged.
How should I store my batting pads?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are dry before storing and avoid placing heavy objects on top of them.

Ensure the hook & loop surfaces are clean and free of debris. If straps are worn, consider replacement.
Pad feels uncomfortable or shifts during play
Readjust the straps for a more secure fit. Ensure the knee roll is correctly aligned with your knee.
