About this bat

The Kookaburra Shadow Pro 2.0 is built for players who want a bat that moves fast through the air without giving anything up in power. Manufactured at Kookaburra's facility using unbleached English willow, the Shadow Pro 2.0 features a low-profile blade with a distinctive duckbill toe — a shape that lowers the centre of gravity, speeds up pick-up, and generates crisp, punchy contact through the hitting zone. It's a bat that suits a modern, aggressive batting style while remaining genuinely controllable in the hands.

The blade carries a mid-to-low sweet spot with a full-width playing area backed by thick edges and a sturdy spine. The duckbill toe profile means the bat is noticeably lighter in hand compared to standard square-toed bats at similar weights, giving you confidence on short deliveries and pull shots as well as the drive. It is a favourite shape among Kookaburra's professional athletes for exactly this reason.

Finished with Kookaburra's signature Shadow graphics and fitted with the Grid Grip for enhanced tack and comfort, the Shadow Pro 2.0 ships as a short handle (SH) and weighs between 2lb 8oz and 2lb 10oz. As with all English willow bats, oiling and knocking in is required before match use — where bat preparation is enabled, we complete this fully before dispatch so the bat arrives ready to play.

Frequently asked questions

The Shadow Pro 2.0 sits in the upper tier of the Shadow range — Kookaburra's aggressive, power-focused lineup. Within the Shadow range, the Pro 2.0 represents the senior performance tier, sitting above mid-range Shadow models. The Shadow range itself sits alongside lines like the Kahuna, Ghost, and Rapid in Kookaburra's broader bat family.
The duckbill toe is a distinctive shaped toe profile that angles slightly forward compared to a standard square or round toe. It lowers the bat's centre of gravity, which in practice means the bat feels lighter in the hands and swings faster through the arc. Many professional players prefer this shape for pull shots and short-pitch play. It doesn't affect the face profile or sweet spot position.
Yes — all English willow bats require knocking in before match use. If our bat preparation service is enabled, we oil, machine-knock and fit a scuff sheet before dispatch so it arrives ready to play. If preparing it yourself, start with light oiling, leave it to dry overnight, then progress from light to heavy knocking over several sessions.
Yes. Select an extra grip in the add-ons section and we'll fit it to the bat before it leaves us. Available in Gray-Nicolls, GM Terrain and SG Player options.
The Shadow Pro 2.0 is built for the aggressive, stroke-making batter who values quick pick-up and punchy impact over a conventional full-profile bat. The duckbill toe and low profile make it especially effective for players who play a lot of short-pitch cricket, T20 formats, and aggressive middle-order innings. If you're a traditional front-foot player who prefers a higher sweet spot, a bat like the Kookaburra Ghost or Kahuna may suit you better — message Yaseer on WhatsApp for advice.
The Shadow Pro 2.0 is available between 2lb 8oz and 2lb 10oz. Due to the duckbill toe lowering the balance point, these bats tend to feel lighter in hand than their scale weight suggests. Most players find 2lb 8oz or 2lb 9oz the sweet spot — enough weight for power while keeping the swing speed that makes the Shadow profile effective. Message Yaseer on WhatsApp for a personal recommendation.
