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.

Batting Style: RH Versitile Batsman
Bowling Style: RH Medium-Fast

Highest Score: 87*
Best Bowling: when I was younger it was something like 6-20, but I've only bowled a couple of overs since then and my best is probably around 2-7 in 3 overs.
Best Shot: Pull
Worst Shot: Sweep
Best Ball: Surprise Short Ball
Worst Ball: Wouldn't say I have a worst ball - I'm just not consistent enough.

Proudest Moment on cricket field: Not sure about on-field, but off-field I've completely changed our cricket club recently and we're in a much better financial state because of it which will hopefully lead to our club being bigger and better.
