Earlier when people started playing cricket, they did not use helmet but when bowlers developed speed, it was becoming increasingly dangerous for the batsmen to protect their head from injury. Though they were using pads and gloves, the head was still vulnerable and a few players even sustained injuries. That is when people started using helmets to protect their skull.
