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.

Great knock by YJB. I don't think 300 is that bad a score, Broad and Anderson should be able to do some serious damage with the new ball.


EDIT What I meant is that I think 300 will be enough to get a 1st innings lead. I still think England batted poorly (Bairstow and Hales apart) and could have applied themselves a lot better and racked up a lot more against a pretty average looking bowling attack on a slow pitch.

His bats were blank last time I saw him play, must have gone back pretty recently.

I thought he was back with them since last year, I'm sure I saw him in the UAE with Slaz and maybe even during the ashes.

EDIT - Looks like he's been there since the start of last year @smilley792  http://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/news-photo/steven-finn-of-england-walks-from-the-nets-during-a-nets-news-photo/461703824
