Leather Cricket Balls

Choose the Right Leather Cricket Ball

The right leather cricket ball depends on the player category, playing surface and whether it is required for regular practice, academy training, club cricket or matches.

SVB Sports offers leather cricket balls with different weights and constructions. Compare the available products by player class, weight, colour, construction, intended use and pack size before choosing.

Choose by Player and Weight

Cricket-ball weight and circumference vary according to the player category:

• Adult cricket: approximately 156g
• Women’s cricket: approximately 142g
• Under-13 cricket: approximately 135g

SVB Sports offers 156g balls for adult cricket, a 142g four-piece ball for women’s cricket, and a 135g four-piece ball for Under-13 players.

Competition requirements can vary. Always confirm the applicable tournament, school or association rules before purchasing a ball for match use.

Read our Cricket Ball Weight Guide for the complete weight and circumference ranges.

Two-Piece and Four-Piece Cricket Balls

A two-piece cricket ball has an outer cover made from two shaped pieces of leather. It is generally selected for affordable, repeated practice, school cricket and regular training. The SVB Swift+ is designed for players who need an entry-level leather practice ball.

A four-piece cricket ball uses four pieces of leather and is commonly chosen for academy training, club cricket, match practice and competitive play. SVB Blitz, Club and Test balls provide different options according to the required playing level, construction and budget.

The number of leather pieces is not the only measure of quality. The core, thread winding, leather, stitching, seam, finish and balance also affect how a ball performs and wears.

Red and White Leather Cricket Balls

Red leather cricket balls are commonly used for daytime cricket and longer playing formats.

White leather cricket balls are commonly selected for limited-overs cricket, evening sessions and play under stronger artificial lighting.

The correct colour depends on the match format, lighting and competition requirements. Construction, finish and playing conditions can also affect how long a ball retains its appearance and playing characteristics.

The SVB women’s and Under-13 leather cricket balls are available in red and white.

Choose by Playing Use

• Beginners and regular practice: choose an affordable training ball intended for repeated use.
• Schools and academies: choose according to player age, required weight and frequency of training.
• Club and match practice: consider a four-piece, hand-stitched ball with a pronounced seam.
• Women’s cricket: choose the appropriate women’s weight and circumference specification.
