Right I have a new hurdle in my quest for batting comfort.
When bowling/Fielding I wear boxers under my trousers but have found with nets now I have to wear my jock strap for my box over my boxers when bowling so i don't have to strip off to fit the box for batting but this is not comfy and makes me sweat way to much.
So my question is what do folk uses under there trousers when playing?
Cheers

I wear skins with a pouch in them. Very comfy and it has the pouch for your box in it.
-
Canterbury Fielding whites have a mesh lining which is perfect for batting and keeping.

Pretty cheap as well

(In one of the many kit mods I've done...!) I've tied my (Aero) box to my strippers waist band, thus keeping it where you need it (vertically) (and owing to the slim/long nature of the Aero box it doesn't move sideways too much), and enabling it to be worn over boxers and under the outer layer, whilst the strippers can sit on the outside or inside. Works a treat tbf!

I've got underarmour shorts that have a pouch in them, to be honest though the shockdoctor box that I use does move around a bit in them. Not enough to be dangerous but just enough to make me fidget a bit.
Also got some GN coverpoint things that seem to fit a box a bit better. Wear one of them for all nets and games as they're compression gear, not sure how much it helps but before I wore them I did once pull my groin in nets and I've not done it since.

Aero box and briefs with strippers. Perfect for me.

Vulcan or GM jock strap. (+ shock Dr box)
underarmour skins.

Just standard batting briefs with a pouch for a box which I bought from SCS.... Funny story the way I got it, left for an away game and I realised I forgot my old briefs, stopped in SCS on the way and scored my first league ton with them a few hours later :D

the aero shorts are much better than the briefs. in fact, the best lycra compression shorts i've used.
-
Do the briefs have a pouch in them or do you just have to slip the box in as you would a jock strap?
I used to have a pair of kook shorts that had a pouch but the box would move around way to much.

I got the Aero cycling shorts last week, absolutely in love with them, really really comfy, I wear with the Aero box and would say i'm not even aware im wearing a box. so so comfy, snug fit.

Owzat cricket.
Gotta rave about them as a company as well.
I got my billing and delivery address mixed up, took a few weeks for royal mail to deliver package, when they did they upgraded my shipping from royal mail to parcelforce recorded F.O.C. maybe just to shut me up :D
-
There website says delivery will be mid march :(

Been to nets tonight and my shockdoctor box is winding me up a bit. Does anyone else use a shockdoctor box? What's best to keep them in place, my under armour shorts are ok but just feels like the box moves about a bit which is getting annoying.
Are the shockdoctor shorts any good?

I use shock doctor and I use normal Sport Briefs and they fit fine.

I just got a pair today from Serious Cricket, they had more Meds in stock too. They are a tad more expensive then Owzat, but luckily I live near to dummer so i could go and get them.
Also i found the medium fitted better then the large, even though according to the size guide I should have been a large

finding the shock doctor box a bit of a pain, have to readjust it a fair bit, tried the shock doctor shorts with an old GN box in the nets this week, felt much more comfy
