The Kookaburra Ghost Lite is a specialized cricket bat designed for players seeking a lighter pickup without sacrificing the power associated with the standard Ghost range. It achieves this by using a 1-inch shorter blade paired with a 1-inch longer “Pro Lite” counter-balance handle, maintaining a standard overall bat length while reducing weight.
Key Features:
- Willow Grade: Typically Grade 4 or Grade 6 Unbleached English Willow, depending on the specific yearly model.
- Weight: Very lightweight, generally ranging from approx. 1050g – 1150g.
- Blade Length: 1-inch shorter than a standard bat.
- Handle: 1-inch longer “Pro Lite” counter-balance handle.
- Profile (Sweet Spot): Mid-position, designed for all-round stroke play.
- Edge Thickness: Approx. 33mm to 35mm.
- Spine Height: Approx. 62mm to 65mm.

Description:
- Design & Aesthetics: Features the signature “Ghost” minimalist, all-white and silver styling.
- Performance: The combination of a shorter blade and a pro-lite handle ensures superior balance and exceptionally quick bat speed, ideal for modern, fast-paced cricket formats.
- Player Type: Suited for the “cricketing purist” or touch players who rely on timing, placement, and quick maneuvering over raw power, though the profile still offers substantial power.
- Durability: Despite being lighter, the bat retains a high-quality, dense willow, and it comes with a toe guard fitted.
- The Ghost Lite is often considered an alternative to the heavier, power-focused Bats in the Kookaburra range, such as the Beast or Kahuna.
