The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

All he needed way the ball to penetrate a small bit further and it would have hit him. Also the ACIS would have taken more shock out of it

He went and got Dilshans CA helmet. Finn pegged him about 3/4 inches about the peak and put a nice sized hole in the plastic

It did it's job in saving his skull but how many amateurs can afford a new helmet every time you get hit I certainly can't
