Cricket Box

If you consider that a good bowler will bowl cricket balls at a speed approaching 145km making protective cricket equipment essential – hence the pads, helmet and gloves. Even a medium bowler can bowl a cricket ball at an average of 120km and which can cause enormous damage if the ball hits an area lacking protection.

Because protection is important, it's also vital that cricket equipment is good quality and fits well. You might then ask, how do I know what cricket equipment or cricket supplies to buy?

A good cricket box will weigh about 2lbs and you will also want a match-standard box for a good price.

For players who take their cricket very seriously, will want one good ball rather than a number of cheaper ones.
