Question for cricket tragics
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

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.Bodgy

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.Bob C.
Never give up.

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