Description:
Cricket uniforms are designed for comfort, performance, and team representation. A standard cricket kit includes a collared shirt (either short or long-sleeved), made from lightweight, breathable fabric to keep players cool during long hours in the sun. The trousers are also made from comfortable, flexible material that allows ease of movement while batting, bowling, or fielding. Players wear cricket shoes with rubber or metal spikes for better grip on the field. Caps or wide-brimmed hats are commonly used to shield players from the sun, while helmets with grills are worn by batters and close-in fielders for protection against fast balls. Protective gear such as pads, gloves, thigh guards, arm guards, abdomen guards (box), and sometimes chest guards are worn mainly by batters and wicketkeepers. The uniform often displays the team logo, sponsor branding, and player name and number, especially in limited-overs formats like ODIs and T20s.
