It is reported that the Australia Cricket Institute has taken a unique decision for the safety of the lives of the cricketers playing for the national team and local teams.
Accordingly, from the first of October, the cricket players of the country must wear neck covers for their protective headgear when batting.
The country’s authorities say that the batsmen must wear protective equipment when facing fast bowlers and slow bowlers.
After Philip Hughes, a super young left-handed batsman in Australia, was killed by a ball hitting the back of his neck, a neck cover was introduced to the protective helmet in 2015, but it was stated that David Warner and Steve Smith in the Australian team did not like to bat by wearing it.
