Tyronne Mathews, the father of Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews, had no issues with the helmet his son has been using. Yesterday, Australia-s Scott Boland-s bouncer broke the helmet of the 29-year-old Sri Lankan captain while he was batting against Australia in Dambulla.

"The helmets are given by the SL board and I am sure they are safe. This happens sometimes and I have no issues with it," he said from Colombo.
"I think Pakistani captain Misbah-ul-Haq-s helmet was also broken recently and this can happen to anyone. I am yet to speak to my son as he is still at the ground, but will certainly speak to him after the match. What I understand is this injury is less serious than his calf injury. His participation in the remaining matches is doubtful but he-ll recover soon," said Tyronne.
