He's also using GN Wk innners. I'd assume he is using Shrey as it looks like it's a WK helmet no?

It has a thicker peak than a standard shrey. Could be many reasons.


I'm gonna go with.


Masuri is far far to heavy to keep in, so he got a shrey.

Jos Butler is now using Shrey Helmets, probably the new fixed grill one with improved peak, these were on show a couple of weeks ago across the road from the Lords show! very light around 750 grams!

Holy Mackerel, the gap on that lid is tiny!

It could be specialised wicketkeeping helmet...

The guys from Its Just Cricket did a review of a specialised Masuri wicketkeeping helmet a few months ago.

Maybe Shrey have done a copy of that. That would explain the shorter and thicker peak anyway.

Buttler uses a Shrey wicket keeping helmet - practically identical in design to the discontinued Masuri wicket keeping helmet - shorter peak (for a less interrupted view when looking upwards when a ball is top edged skyward) and a small portion of the back above the neck cut out (to avoid the back rubbing/hitting the neck when crouched in keeping position). Shrey have made very similar copies of other models like the Masuri fielding helmet as well.

He does bat in a Masuri Vision Elite for England.

On a side note, he seems to have stuck with the 2013 Masuri lid with Elite grill when batting for Lancashire - seems odd considering the new Vision series lid have been used and are available by e.g. Ashwell Prince, which seems to indicate he prefers the old style for county level.
