The Oakley glasses are specifically designed for fielding and highlight the ball colour so it's easier to track. Why do I know this? My daughter plays state grade and her last pair cost me $450.

If you don't believe me, given they reduce glare and increase contrast, ask yourself why they don't wear them batting?

Because they are never looking into the sun when they are batting!

Then test them like I suggested. It's impossible for a curve surface not to cause deflection the moment the object is off axis.

The color shift thing is bogus, simple polarisation does the trick nothing special needed, it's marketing spin and the sales technique is called associate marketing.

A pair of Maui Jim polymer sports lenses will do the same job and if you buy them off a store you can get them for half the price. Of course your daughter will hate you because you've ruined her career, that's the head space issue associate marketing does on kids, FOMO.

Sorry but you're talking rubbish. The Oakley glasses are specifically designed for cricket and they have an aspheric lens to prevent distortion.

Anyway, back to the test cricket...another ****ing putrid batting effort which will end Webster's and Marnus' careers. Lost 4/3 to hand the momentum back to Bangla. Be nice if someone - anybody- would take the opportunity on offer.
