Title: Did anyone see the replay of Pak batsman getting hit on the grill
Post by: yvk3103 on January 31, 2010, 05:46:53 PM

The replays showed the kind of impact the helmets take and the way the shock is dispersed on impact......

Thought I will start this thread in Ayrtek's section as they specialize in helmets......

Can anyone find a video of this and post it there?

Yeah would be good to see this got the other publicised ones somewhere such as Daniel Flynn and David Fulton.

No not the best when it fractured his eye socket and ended up finishing his career due to losing his depth perception wasnt it?

Nope, it was horrible. I guess the scariest thing was that as opposed to watching people getting pinned in test matches by bowling gods, this was just a bowling machine at not a great pace, very reminiscent of one of our nets.

Still, he is now one Sky Sports News, so there is a silver lining I guess!
