I'm Murph and i've come to get better acquainted with cricket! I used to play as a kid and have some fond memories (getting a full toss hit my nose full speed - ouch!)
Anyway, i don't really follow the sport nowadays, so it's time to find out more I look forward to being a part of this community
Welcome to the forum Murph, all i can say is ouch!
I've been lucky and managed to avoid any nasty ball to body incidents, apart from on game when i must have been about 13 or so, playing for an adult team and the other team were taking it a little too seriously especially as i was batting no.11 and we had no chance of winning.
My body got peppered that day, but the more they did it the more determined i was to stay in.
