Kookaburra Diablo Pro Players Cricket Batting Gloves (26)

Kookaburra Diablo Pro Players Cricket Batting Gloves

The Kookaburra Diablo Pro Players Cricket Batting Gloves are premium batting gloves designed for elite cricket, combining substantial hand protection with the distinctive Diablo styling. RFPro reinforced fibre finger inserts, fibre-reinforced thumb protection and protective sidebars provide coverage against fast bowling, while a premium leather palm helps maintain feel and control on the bat handle.

The Diablo Pro Players uses Hybrid Rounded and Square Foam Styling, giving the glove a combination of protective finger shapes rather than relying on a single construction throughout. Underneath, RFPro Reinforced Fibre Protection Finger Inserts strengthen key impact areas through the fingers.

The thumb uses Multi Flex Thumb Protection with a Fibre Insert, adding reinforcement while retaining the segmented movement needed when gripping the bat. Across the back of the hand, High Density Foam with Multi Flex Panels provides further impact protection while allowing the glove to flex naturally during batting.

Protection extends around the sides of the hands. The bottom hand receives a three-piece protective sidebar, while the top hand uses a one-piece sidebar. This added coverage is particularly relevant when facing quicker bowling, where deliveries can strike the sides of the gloves as well as the fingers.

A premium leather palm with airflow ventilation and a wear patch provides comfort when at the batting crease. The wear patch reinforces an area exposed to repeated friction, while airflow ventilation and a breathable mesh gusset help manage heat inside the glove.

A soft fill foam lining, double-sided towelling wristband and breathable gusset contribute to comfort and moisture management. The premium Velcro closure is designed to reduce catching and pulling, with embossed detailing completing the Pro Players finish.
