It's cold again this weekend, wanted to know how many layers clothing your gonna be in, on the field, might well as off the field, wouldn't make much difference.
I'll having at least 3 and max 4🙂
-
I had 6 layers on last weekend
-
Ill be t shirt only today. You need to do more in the field or get some quick singles in!
-
2skins, 2 shirts long sleeve jumper and short sleeve jumper... 6
-
It's forecast to be the coldest early May bank Holliday weekend on record so today and tomorrow when fielding it will be a 3/4 sleeve thin fleece short sleeve shirt a fleece line short sleeve sweater and an all wool sweater and a woolly hat.
Plus wool gloves between overs.
Now where's that thermos flask for the hot tea when a wicket falls.

I hate days like these, I always end up wearing the wrong amount when batting and end up either freezing or constantly discarding layers as a sweat my nuts off!
Fielding is a lot easier, just put on as many as possible!!

I know what you mean will probably bat in a vest long sleeve shirt and short sleeve sweater.
-
I don't understand how anyone can wear so many layers!
Just a playing shirt to bat.
Playing shirt and a sleeveless pullover to field (and that's unlikely to stay on for the full innings)
Do you lot just stand stationery the whole time or what? ???
-
I had to unfortunately drop out from this weekend but I had hot base layer, long & short sleeve shirt and long sleeve jumper with a hand warmer for each pocket ready to go.
Good luck to all those playing. It’s bloody freezing!
-
After losing six and a half stone in the last 12 months. I'll be wearing plenty of bleeding layers today
-
Short sleeve shirt
Man up everyone :D
-
Used to play hockey in Amsterdam, while snow fell, in club t shirt, but that's long long time ago, no way that's possible at 50 plus
-

Standing at slip

Played yesterday and it was cold with a brisk NW wind.
I had an 3/4 sleeve shirt and an under armour heat gear compression long sleeve shirt underneath plus long thigh covering shock doctor compression shorts underneath.
For fielding and batting I was warm enough with enough movement. For spin bowling I felt I couldn't access the last 15% of trying to accelerate and extend my action at the crease because my muscles were too cold.
For reference, I'm what you might term a northerner and am rarely cold. I think a different thicker under armour shirt would work next time.
-
I played on Thursday.
Am still sore! Was fine in a very thick UA cold gear baselayer, shirt and fleecy jumper.
Glad I wasn't in the sleet today!
-
A proper two jumper day today,(still wore shorts to the game tho) especially when it started with the hailstones!
I never bat in a jumper tho, so my nips are gonna be sore for a month
-
4 layers, base layer, shirt, sleeveless sweater and sweater
Today was the coldest I’ve ever played in, 7 degrees but wind chill making 2 degrees.
-
It was SO cold today.
-
Wore a jumper for the first ever time on the field today, must have been cold!
Lent my other one out which i regretted soon after! was just about warm enough
-
Won today by 2 wickets with 8 balls left one of our guys even with 2 sweaters was so cold he left the field and failed to return.
-
Was lovely in Somerset. Long sleeve shirt.

6 1/2 stone? Crikey that’s fantastic well done mate!
-
Chilly yesterday and I’m a southern softie so long sleeved t shirt, short sleeved match shirt and short sleeved jumper which came off for bowling
-
Did anyone have a warm up? What was the chat like? It was awfully quiet in the field but I have a feeling it was because everyone was freezing...
-

Slight correction i did opt for a jumper, it was one of the coldest days cricket i can remember
-
Good one 😀
I had correction as well, in stead of max 4 I had 6 layers and it felt right 🙂
-
This thread needs more northerners :D
Half our side on Saturday were strolling around in just a short sleeve shirt as we waiting for the hailstones to finish, a few complaining why we couldn't play through it
