Romans wore groin protection, known as a "fascia," primarily for practical reasons in combat and athletic activities. The protection helped shield the vulnerable groin area from injury during battles and physical contests, such as gladiatorial games. Additionally, it provided support and comfort for soldiers and athletes, allowing them to perform their duties and compete more effectively. This form of protection reflects the Romans' emphasis on both physical prowess and the importance of military readiness.

What do crickets do for protection?

This depends entirely on how safe you want to feel. The standard equipment for a batsman will be pads for their legs, a box (or groin protector) and gloves. Additional items as you move into more competitive cricket are arm guards for your forearms, thigh pads, for your front thigh, sometimes chest pads, and various helmets are available as well. In the field wicket keepers wear pads, gloves and groin guards. Some close in fielders may wear a helment and groin guard as well. Then there's sun protection... sunblock and hats... and you might even see footage of the good old days of zinc.
