Dinesh Karthik used this in the zonal T20s..so did Murali Vijay. Physical appearance is a big aspect of helmets and this one fails in that department like the Ayrtek helmets.

We might see some more of the crown walkers in the IPL this yr.

I dont think we've gone quite as far as this one in terms of looks to be put in the same bracket 😳

Saw Dinesh Karthik using it when playing for South Zone in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Domestic T20 tournament.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but I think Dinesh Karthik has used one of these...

Found this on Instagram this morning. No neck guard? No problem.

Just google baseball helmets with a facemask and you will find a ton of similar products but mind you, the baseball batters don't wear them for more than 5 min. As an experiment, a friend of mine tried using a baseball helmet for cricket and he gave up after first 15 min!

Dear lord what is that?!?

Good to see the use of ribs and flares has caught on to aid in the structural rigidity of a helmet.
