    Mathematical Models for Cricket Team Selection

    Mathematical Models for Cricket Team Selection Hamish Thorburn Dr Michael Forbes The University of Queensland 26/02/2015 1 1 Abstract An attempt was made to try and select the Australian Test Cricket Team for then-upcoming series against India in December-January 2014-2015. Data was collected pertaining to 37 Australian cricket players, relating to both recent form (the 12 months prior to commencement of the project) and career form across multiple formats of the game. The team was selected using a mixed-integer- programming (MIP) model, after processing the statistics collected to create usable parameters for the model. It was found that the team selected by the MIP model shared only 5 of the 11 players with the actual team selected by the Australian Board of Selectors to compete in the series. When altering parameters of the model, it was found that the batting diversity of the team could be doubled while only losing 0.008 of the available talent of selected players. The reduced costs were calculated to determine how close unselected players were to being selected, and what they would have to increase their batting/bowling averages to be considered for selection. Finally, we compared the ICC player ratings to our calculated batting and bowling indices, to try to determine the optimal weighting between the different statistics. It was found that batting average was most important in batting performance (but was more important in test matches than one-day matches) and that bowling average and economy were equally important in bowling performance. 2 Introduction 2.1 The Game of Cricket Cricket is a sport composing of opposing teams of 11 players each side.
  • Victoria V Tasmania

    Victoria V Tasmania

    Between the teams – Victoria v Tasmania The first contest between Victoria and Tasmania took place on open ground at the Launceston Racecourse on February 11 and 12, 1851, a site that was later developed as the NTCA Ground. In what is now regarded as the inaugural first-class match in Australia, Tasmania won a low-scoring contest by three wickets. Although the Sheffield Shield competition commenced in 1892/93, Tasmania was not admitted until 1977/78. It initially competed on a restricted basis, meeting each state only once per season, before being granted a full programme of home-and-away matches from 1982/83. Since finishing last in 10 of its first 18 Shield seasons, Tasmania has in recent years been consistently competitive, winning the competition for the first time in 2006/07 and repeating its success in 2010/11 and 2012/13. Victoria has won the Shield 32 times, most recently in 2018/19. LAST SEASON: At Bellerive Oval, Hobart, Oct 31, Nov 1-3, 2019.
