Collection Of Cricket Equipment

 Cricket is a team sport similar to American field hockey, highly competitive and perhaps unfairly known as the game of the wealthy and privileged. Cricket has a long history in British and Irish cultures. The game that is played today originated in England and is very popular in England as well as other countries influenced by British culture during British colonization in the 18th and 19th centuries. Cricket equipment is highly specialized and precise in performance.

Cricket is the most popular sport in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. It is also very popular in underprivileged countries such as Australia and New Zealand. South Africa and the Caribbean also enjoy a huge following of cricket fans.

The game requires special cricket equipment and is especially difficult for cricket enthusiasts to track unless you live in a country that follows cricket the way Americans follow football.

The first cricket equipment had little resemblance to what is used today. The original bats were very reminiscent of a modern hockey stick. Folklore maintains the first style of paddle to emerge from the shepherd's staff. A modern cricket bat made of willow wood sealed with linseed oil. According to 42 laws of cricket, a bat cannot exceed 38 inches in length and a little over four inches in width, consisting of a handle and paddle. The handle has a soft lining and tape, like a tennis racket. There the similarities end with the fact that the cricket bat is much more essential than the tennis racket.

The traditional cricket ball comes in red or white and is 9 inches in diameter. A real cricket ball starts with a core of wrapped twine and ends with leather wrapped around the twine to form an approved surface.

The game is played on a roughly oval-shaped grass field with a strip of dirt in the center called the field. At each end of the field are "goal posts", which are made up of three "stumps", which are vertical posts, each of which supports two "crossbars", collectively known as a wicket. Wooden gates.

Behind each pair of wickets is a “sight glass” aligned parallel to the width of the field.

You will also need the player's clothing, including jumpers, sweaters or wool pullovers, depending on the weather. Protective pads, including pads for the legs, thighs, arms, chest, abdomen and elbows, are essential to prevent injuries and bone fractures. Cricket is not a women's sport!

To complete your cricket equipment, you will need cricket gloves. There are specially designed thick-lined gloves for the batsman. For the gatekeeper, you will need huge gloves that look like mittens with webbed fingers, much like a baseball glove.
