Cricket equipment: Box
You won't need to guess where the most painful place to be hit by a cricket ball is - particularly for males.
A box should always be worn to protect the "privates" when batting against a cricket ball or other hard ball.
Wicketkeepers and fielders close to the wicket should also wear a box at all times.
You won't regret it.
