Hi there, this is my first post here.
I am currently writing an investigation for school on the development of cricket equipment, specifically balls, helmets and pads.

I would just like to know, if its not to much trouble if anyone could give me some information on the materials/manufacture methods of them. Also any opinions would be nice;
-do you wear a helmet when playing? Why? for example.


So thanks for taking some time reading this, any info would be very helpful.
Thanks.
