This is something we have actually gone the other way on as we designed the grill that used in 2009 to leave either a 45mm gap for junior sized balls or 55mm for adult sized balls in accordance with BS 7928:1998 guidelines. People commented that they wanted bigger gaps to be viable so the 2010 grill allows bigger gaps between the grill and peak of upto 70mm .

This setting will allow a ball to fit through but the 45/55mm setting and in between can also be applied should the wearer of the helmet desire those settings.

Hope that makes sense?!

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.

Basically you can adjust the grill setting like any other helmet to have any gap you want from huge gaps that will let the ball through or tiny gap that won't let a golf ball through like Jimmy Anderson
