Question for cricket tragics

[Lignum]

This has been bothering me for months now. Matty Haydon puts his forearm to the peak of his helmet and heaps of liquid drips out. Not just a few drops but it seams enough to fill an 8th of a tea cup. Do the modern day helmets have some sort of sweat catcher or something:? . Whats the go.


Speaking of Helmets, Helmut will be in Melbourne soon. What a blast from the past:wink:

The helmets are lined with a sort of foam which will collect the sweat. Haydens compressing the foam and the sweat runs out. Thats how it is for us and I dont think their helmets are any different - just their skills.

Does seem like a lot of liquid tho, must be why they have all the drinks breaks.

The Oz team is divided into sweaters and non-sweaters. When returning the ball to the bowler, only the non-sweaters get to touch it - at least when its new.

Looks like Hayden is a sweater.

And he's also a legend.

If you've ever seen Symonds bat for a protracted period (doesn't happen often I know) he also does the sweat-pouring-out-of-the-helmet trick.

With Haydens form going the way it is, he should bottle it - Au de Hayden, make a fortune
