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.

Search Solitaire on here and you should find quite a few reviews. There's a theory though that Roger Weston (Solitaire batmaker) is only really good at making heavier bats.

The ones I have seen at in my local leagues have been fantastic bats, my only concern would be the weight of them as some seem a little heavy. But for a £100 you can't go far wrong.
