Description
Overview
This is the lighter of the two Red King weights, a 142 g red leather two-piece match ball from the Kookaburra range. Everything else matches the heavier ball, which makes it the straightforward pick for grades whose playing conditions call for the lighter senior ball.
Key benefits
- Meets grades that play the lighter red ball, listed at 142 g.
- Two-piece leather cover, the same match construction as the heavier Red King.
- Kookaburra names it a match ball, so it is meant for game day.
Who it's for
Club and school squads whose competition rules set the lighter red ball. Keep a few in the kit bag for umpires, and pair them with an Umpires Counter for scorers. Teams needing the heavier ball should choose the Kookaburra Red King Ball 156g.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the 142 g and 156 g Red King?
Weight only, as far as the listings go. Both are two-piece leather match balls; pick the weight your competition specifies.
Can I use this for nets?
You can, but it is a match ball and priced as one. Cheaper practice balls in our cricket balls range will outlast it in the nets.
