The ball is as hard as a hockey ball (harder than a baseball), and the batsman (baseball: batter) has to wear protective gear, since he's directly in the line of fire. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ70wtD-fLA" rel="nofollow">example</a>. On the defense, only the wicket keeper (baseball: catcher) wears gloves. The bowler (baseball: pitcher) and the other fielders have no protection except (if they're smart) a "cup". OK, we do see fielders in the "silly" fielding positions (e.g. silly mid off) wearing helmets these days, but gloves are not permitted. ("Silly" is a polite way of saying "bloody stupid", meaning "really close to the batsman"!) um… yeah?
