Wearing a face mask while playing
Sir. I am a working professional and I also play club level cricket on weekends.
Due to Corona Pandemic, I have not played cricket since last year march..
But now i am planning to start my cricket again from mid march 2021..
but i am bit worried on not wearing mask while playing the game
None of my team members wears mask nor the opposition team members.
So, I just wanted to know, is it advisable to wear mask while playing, especially fast bowling ?
Is there any risk in playing cricket in outdoors without wearing a mask ?
and more importantly, is it risky to play cricket/fast bowling with a 3 or 6 layer mask ?
Thanks

Hello there!
I would suggest not to wear a mask while playing or working out or whatsoever as it may reduce your ability to breath normally.
You can surely play your game
Get vaccinated for covid 19
And still take few basic precautions of maintaining social distance and avoid touching your eyes,face and nose!
Thankyou!
