No, Duncan Fearnley had them in the 1980s. That was what I was saying. Look for pictures of Graham Gooch.

I was told when at Duncan Fernley last month that he was the first ever. They also had a list of firsts up there in the market, lets not forget how big he was back in the day.....

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.

Agreed, it would be awesome if they could bring out a retro range - especially as the main people who would buy the bats are in their 30/40's now so have more disposable income whilst still looking to relive their youthful memories of Ian Terence Botham smashing the ball into the confectionery stand and hooking Lillee with his eyes closed... marvellous
