Cricket equipment guide
Cricket is a sport where you need a few bits of specialist equipment to keep you safe.
Most clubs provide bats and all the protective gear, but you may want your own kit.
In fact, there can be so much kit you may feel as though you're packing to go on holiday.
But a hard cricket ball can do a lot of damage - so protective gear is essential.
It will stop you getting hurt, though you may find the odd bump and bruise slips through now and then.
Click on the above to get details on each bit of equipment.
