Medium-weight bats, where most players end up
If you have no strong feeling about weight, you want one of these. The middle of the range is where most players finish after trying both ends: enough mass to send the ball when you middle it, light enough that you are not late on the quick one. Every bat here is still cut to the weight you ask for.

Why the middle is the default
It is the range that punishes you least for being slightly wrong. A very light bat needs you to supply the power; a very heavy one needs you to be early. The middle forgives both, which is why it is where players land once they stop guessing and start noticing.
Common questions
What is a tennis ball cricket bat?
A tennis ball cricket bat is a bat built for the lighter tennis ball used in street, gully and club cricket, rather than a hard leather ball. It is lighter, needs no knocking in, and is usually made from Sri Lankan wood, Kashmir Willow or Poplar.
How much does a tennis ball cricket bat cost in India?
A proper wooden tennis ball cricket bat costs between ₹950 and ₹3,500 in India. Toss Sports bats run from ₹950 to ₹2,999 direct from our Chennai workshop, without a distributor margin.
Do tennis ball cricket bats need knocking in?
No. Knocking in compresses the face against a hard leather ball, and a tennis ball never applies that load. Keeping the bat dry and taping the toe matters far more.
Which wood is best for a tennis ball bat?
Sri Lankan (Ceylon) wood is best for the hard or medium tennis ball because it is denser. Kashmir Willow suits the soft ball with faster pickup, and Poplar is the affordable choice for beginners.
What weight bat is best for tennis ball cricket?
Most adults suit 750g to 850g. Lighter than 750g favours timing and fast hands; heavier than 850g only makes sense if you can still swing it through the line late in an innings.
Can I get a cricket bat made to my own weight?
Yes. Because we shape the bats ourselves in Chennai, you can specify a target weight, scoop style and colour when you order, and we pick a cleft to match.
Where can I buy a cricket bat in Chennai?
Toss Sports makes and sells bats at its workshop in Nesapakkam, Ramapuram, and at Toss The Turf in Kolathur. You can also order on WhatsApp at 91769 95707 for delivery anywhere in India.
