[@rocketrabble6737]

A much younger friend of mine did exactly that two years ago in a local league match in the South of England. He was hit by a quick bowler and had to retire hurt. It turns out he was not wearing a box, and at the age of 27, had never worn one whilst playing. It was 2 or 3 weeks before he was able to play again.

[@TubeScreen-um2sd]

No one should! Cricket ball is hard enough to take ur life if hit hard there

[@hi_pd]

Even if you wear a bullet proof jacket and get shot, it still hurts due to the impact, same goes for the nut cups. Doesn't matter how much you pad up the nuts, a cricket ball when delivered at 130+ km/hr will evacuate your soul instantly.

I doubt Alistair Cook was wearing one at first slip. Of all of these that one probably hurt the most. lol

[@RolandjHearn]

Because in cricket the bowler is actually trying to hit you, at least some of the time so you don't feel too comfortable, wearing a cup is not ever questioned. You just do it. You have got to watch to David Lloyed tell the story of being hit by a 100mph delivery from Jeff Thomson. When he talks about needing a welder rather than a doctor to extract him from the device because every thing that was supposed to be on the inside of the box had squeezed through the holes and was now on the outside, you just die.

What you said about the Fielders in Close is True , You Zing one past their Head and they soon back up ! lol The Fielding Position is called " Silly mid off and Silly mid on "depending on side of the wicket for a reason .

[@rachelstevens7625]

The "oh no" was the third time in the game he was hit there. I was watching live. The clip where the fielder is very close to the batter is called silly mid wicket. A silly mid-wicket is a fielding position in the sport of cricket. It is a close-catching position on the leg side, between the batsman and the square leg umpire

[@shrewman5361]

Nah. It’s silly point.

[@rachelstevens7625]

Thanks for the correction

[@rocketrabble6737]

​@@rachelstevens7625 Actually that was (very) silly mid off. 'Point' is, essentially, square (90 degrees) of the pitch on the off-side. Silly mid-wicket would be on the other side of the pitch (leg side).

[@aussiesurfer805]

there' not a single player in cricket who doesn't wear protection (a cup) ... you've got to remember the ball is harder then a baseball and when it hits a batter it's normally on an upward projection coming off the bounce ....

[@RealFansSports]

It really has nothing to do with how hard the ball is... some players just dont like how it feels. whether its a cricket ball that weighs a couple grams more than a baseball coming at you at 90mph or a baseball coming at you slightly less weight but high mph it still hurts

[@RealFansSports]

now the likely-hood of it hitting a cricket player is higher since they are able to bowl at the batter is a better argument as to why they would all wear a cup.

[@aussiesurfer805]

@@RealFansSports "some players just don't like how it feels" 🤣🤣 Yeah my old mate "iron balls Mike" just loves it .... and strangely my other mate Bazza don't seem the slightest bit phased, still "Bazza No Balls" is a eunuch, sooooo. 😜 But yeah, for sure, the nature of batting/bowling is the main reason every player wears one, much more susceptible to getting one in the Jatz Crackers then most other sports ..... Still having played both baseball and cricket, I'd rather wear a baseball hitting me straight on then a heavier harder cricket ball angled up from below and pushing your pellets up into your throat ... 😲 .. Just my personal preference, others might enjoy having them lodged i their stomachs more... 🤔 btw, many of the world's quicks can bowl into the high 90s, and a couple have got into the 100s... It's rare to be that quick though, whereas it seems if you can't throw a 100mph fastball you'll struggle to make MLB... Thanks for the replies - great video ...👍😄

[@Dua1512]

​​@@RealFansSports primary difference between baseball batting and cricket batting is that in baseball batter stays away from the ball and hits it with his body away from the ball, and ( it is a foul for the pitcher to aim at his body otherwise he will be attacked by the entire dug out). That is why baseball batter don't wear pads, thigh pads, etc In cricket batter play the ball by bringing his body behind the ball and use his feet to position himself play the ball better.. there is more variation in cricket as the batter has to judge where the ball is landing on the ground and how it is coming off of it in addition to the flight and direction. Plus he has to defend his wicket (his innings will not be over after one hit) so he needs to stay focused and decide when to be aggressive and when to be defensive.

[@stephensmith62]

Played cricket for 25 years ...only forgot the box ( cup) 2 times ...got hit those 2 times . The box can still rattle when hit so depending you may have to cancel that hot date after the game ....

[@michaelwebster8389]

Nobody plays without a cup - or box as we call it. Perhaps there might be the occasional fool who does it in recreational cricket, but nobody doesn't wear one out to bat. The fielders don't have them, and I don't think the keeper usually wears them.

[@michaelwebster8389]

The close in fielders wearing a helmet usually wear a box.

[@rocketrabble6737]

Over 30 years as a keeper I always wore a box. I opened the batting as well for most of that so as soon as I got my whites on the box went in and stayed for the rest of the match, whether we started in the field or batting. I'm sure any experienced keeper wears one, close catchers, other than slips, usually wear them as well.

[@rocketrabble6737]

A friend of mine got hit two seasons ago without a box and had to retire hurt. When we learned he had never worn we stopped feeling sympathetic very soon and just thought "What an idiot!“

[@bruce4130]

Australian commentators don’t hold back and love humour!

[@englishtestuk3523]

It is a rule of the International Cricket Council that a batsman has to wear a cup while batting and the fielder who stands at silly point and short leg which is like about 15 yards from the batsman and the wicket keeper has to wear the cup while fielding also. In case they do not they can be punished.

[@PhilipWard-v8o]

Just letting you know guys that cricket helmets are a relatively new thing. When I grew up in the eighties, no one wore helmets while batting. That is till people started dying. Most notably Aussie cricketer Philip Hughes was killed when the ball hit him in the neck. He died almost instantly. Another fun fact. There is footage out there of our Prime minister in 86? was smashed in the face while batting and the ball smashed his spectacles and knocked him out. He was facing a ball from a pace bowler from the Australian cricket team. Again no helmets were used and he got totally smashed in the face. It was seen globally on news channels all over the world. Maybe you can find the footage if you type in Bob Hawke gets hit by cricket ball. No one wore helmets in the early eighties and there were many injuries. Our prime minister faced one of the fastest bowlers in the world and was hit Fair in the eyes and smashed his glasses on his face and had no helmet and lived to tell the tale.

As a Batter you can read the ball when it leaves the bowlers hand , You know the ball from the start is aiming for the Jewels . You either block or risk a Flick shot knowing If ya miss the Flick it's gunna Hit ya Balls ! So when Livingston screamed "Oh No" he knew it missed the Bat before it even hit his Balls hence the scream ! lol And Yes it is always Funny at every age level .

[@odin741]

Oh how I felt these! Bad memory flashback to when I got hit. I got too close to the batter and he managed to hit and add extra power to the hit- which landed and picked me up and threw me backwards! I was done and quit soon after lol.

There's a cup with a different design made for women cricket players. Not all of them wear one, but the Aussie women jokingly refer to them as manhole covers.

Them saying they would rather get hit in the head it would be better, is definitely the wrong way of thinking considering an Australian player died from getting hit in the head

[@RealFansSports]

We understand the risk of it. It’s also just joke…

[@davidmccarthy6390]

Not 100% accurate. Phillip Hughes was hit in the neck rather than the head, and it burst his carotid artey and he died right there on the pitch. Very sad day.

[@brucelamberton8819]

Back in the 1980s when broadcasting guidelines were much stricter than they are now, when a batsman was hit "downnthere", commentators would say things like "He's been hit middle stump" or "He's been hit square on", etc. Former Australia captain Ian Chappell, commentating on Channel 9 Wide World of Sport (best commentary team EVER) and who always spoke his mind, once said "That's hit him on the dick" and got into a bit of trouble for it.

[@px6497]

I got hit in the fakily jewels once during a university tournament. I wasn't ij the playing 11 so I had worn boxers that day. During warm up one of the main bowler injured his ankle. So i replaced him. While batting i did wore a box but it was a low price one which didnt have an elastic belt with it. I remember holding it in place with my legs. Ever time I played a shot it used to slide right to my knees and stopped by the pads. At ine point there were girls so i could bring it in place and the very next ball i got hit in the nuts. And boy oh boy it swelled up like a ballon in few hours. One surgery and 3 weeks later it was normal. But still my one jewel is considerably larger than the other one.

[@RuanAntunes7]

I was luckily never hit down there but I have been hit in the stomach before and have been winded.

[@rpulley01]

I think the preferred terminology is hector protector. You always wear a box, as we call them, when batting. Also fielding close in sometimes.

[@rocketrabble6737]

What you call "cups" we call 'boxes' (officially 'abdominal protectors'). Through most of my playing days I was a wicket-keeper and opening batsman, so as soon as I changed into 'whites' in went the box for the rest of the game. A much younger friend (27) got hit in the family jewels by a fast bowler, two years ago, in a local league match, and had to retire hurt. It transpired that he was not wearing a box and had never worn one, before in about 15 years of playing. It was three weeks before he was fit to play again! What an idiot!

[@deepurahulan2474]

Scrambled eggs......😅😅😂😂😂

[@rocketrabble6737]

I have suffered this full on a couple of times as an opening bat. I was also a wicket-keeper and you can get hit a lot in that role when standing up to the wicket. I got hit on the inside of the knee, on an inconsistent pitch. There is a spot there that hurts like hell and stops you putting weight on the leg, if the ball gets past the keeping pads. I was writhing in agony and it took a while before I could carry on. Oddly, nobody laughed about that one, whilst everyone laughs if you get hit in the family jewels.

[@kingspeechless1607]

When wearing a box it is essential to ensure that 'everything' is inside the box, and stays inside over the course of an innings.

[@ianharkin2691]

There seem to be certain players who get hit there a lot. You saw them on this video - Alex Hales, Liam Livingstone Joe Root. Certainly, nobody would go out without a box (cup).

[@Xaltar_]

When I was playing cricket in high school one guy got hit in the cup, it was a cheap cup, and the cup split and pinched his frank. There was blood everywhere and half his sausage was pinched between the 2 halves of the busted cup. Just when we stopped laughing his mother runs out onto the pitch and pulls the poor dude's pants down exposing the atrocity to the 400 or so spectators. The guy was fine physically but I don't know if he ever lived down the humiliation. Next practice he had a brand new pro grade cup. That thing bleeds soooo much with the slightest nick🤣😂 Also, if you get hit in the cup, it doesn't matter where it hits the cup your beans get rattled bad, like a really good flick.

[@nightberg1971]

Nice reaction video lads. Just a thought... one of the ways to get out in cricket is LBW (Leg Before Wicket). Maybe a new term should be introduced... DBW, or maybe 3LBW (3rd Leg Before Wicket)...😅

[@Shad0w5carab]

I'm sure there are some people that don't wear a cup but I've never known anyone to bat without one. A far higher percentage of balls you face in cricket are at your body, it's just not worth it to risk not wearing one. Also mentally it's far easier to play balls at your body knowing you've got proper protection if you miss.
