FAQs

Q: Is the SG SUPER TEST Thigh Guard suitable for batsmen who primarily use the front foot?
A: Yes, while providing comprehensive protection, the SUPER TEST's traditional design accommodates front-foot play with minimal interference. The contoured shape follows natural leg movements during forward defensive strokes and driving shots without restricting mobility at the crease.

Q: How does this thigh guard compare to articulated/multi-section designs?
A: The SG SUPER TEST utilizes a traditional single-piece design that provides approximately 15% more protective surface area compared to typical articulated guards. While offering slightly less flexibility than multi-section alternatives, it delivers superior coverage for batsmen who prioritize maximum protection over extreme mobility.

Q: Is this thigh guard ambidextrous or specific to right/left-handed batsmen?
A: The SG SUPER TEST features a symmetrical design that can be worn on either leg. This versatility makes it suitable for both right and left-handed batsmen, with the tri-strap system allowing secure positioning regardless of which thigh requires protection.

Q: Does this guard require specific cricket shorts or can it be worn with standard cricket whites?
A: The SG SUPER TEST Thigh Guard can be worn with standard cricket whites using its dedicated strapping system. However, optimal performance is achieved when paired with cricket compression shorts featuring thigh guard pockets, which enhance stability during dynamic batting movements and prevent rotation during play.
