Our story
Built by cricketers, for cricketers.
Our Heritage · Colombo 4
It started with a bat that didn't feel right.
Cricket Factory was born out of a relentless obsession with what makes a piece of willow truly sing in the hands of a player. In an era where gear is bought unseen off warehouse shelves, we built a sanctuary where cricketers could hold, balance, and test the pickup of every blade before taking guard.
Over the past 25 years, our showroom at Fortune Arcade on Galle Road has become the trusted workshop for Sri Lanka's leading cricketers. From schoolboy prodigies walking in for their first English willow to test veterans seeking custom balancing and precision knocking-in, we have fitted more than 300 professionals and countless club players.
Our golden rule has never wavered: every single bat that reaches our racks is hand-picked, weighed, and tapped out by experienced hands. We don't sell numbers on a scale; we match the wood to your trigger movement and your game.
The team.
