was that wearing an Ayrtek?? :o
poor chap.

Marlon must have been in serious pain.

This was pre-helmet as we had to make him a custom helmet due to his larger than average size swede.

Ouch. Not seen that Marlon clip before. Doesn't say much for the new Masuri grill/helmet combination either...

After just having been to the dentist for yet more treatment after being hit by a top edge 18 years ago I'd definitely recommend wearing a lid.

Had to have a tooth extracted last year and I've luckily been accepted for a dental implant to replace it. Hopefully once thats sorted I'll stop having problems and be able to bit into stuff properly again.

If only I'd had an ayrtek when I was 16........

I'll also be investing in a helmet for the coming season, after a top edge left me needing stitches & unable to work for 3 days.

Never really worn one regularly, though with moving up to open and reading this thread I think that's my 'must do' for this season...

I haven't worn one since I was a kid. I never liked wearing one then, always found it limited my vision and never felt comfortable with one.

Considering getting one as I'm playing Saturday league cricket this season

Me and my fellow coach ran a district session today and we are trying to teach the children how to best play indoor cricket. So we went on a team each. I was facing 12 year olds so initially didn't have my helmet on, but just before I batted I put it on. Whilst facing the other coach I jammed a ball into the ground and it came back up into my grill. Glad I wore it!
