Cricket Rules - Post Zzz of Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Y'all made me do this...

Cricket equipment guide

Cricket is a sport where you need a few bits of specialist equipment to keep you safe.

Most clubs provide bats and all the protective gear, but you may want your own kit.

In fact, there can be so much kit you may feel as though you're packing to go on holiday.

But a hard cricket ball can do a lot of damage - so protective gear is essential.

It will stop you getting hurt, though you may find the odd bump and bruise slips through now and then.

My Personal Favorite piece of equipment:

You won't need to guess where the most painful place to be hit by a cricket ball is - particularly for males.

A box should always be worn to protect the "privates" when batting against a cricket ball or other hard ball.

Wicketkeepers and fielders close to the wicket should also wear a box at all times.

You won't regret it. Neither will your kids.

You get to put your privates in a box in this game? I might have to reevaluate cricket.

Googlies fall under bowling, or for you 'mercan types, pitching. You'll have to wait for that post...
