The tournament is one of the most watched sporting events in the world and is considered the flagship event of the icc's international cricket calendar. The first World Cup was held in England in June 1975, and the first ODI cricket match was played just four years ago.

The first three World Cups were held in England. Since 1987, the tournament has been divided between countries under an informal rotation system, with fourteen ICC members playing at least one match in the tournament. The current format includes a qualifying phase that takes place over the previous three years to determine which teams qualify for the tournament stage. At the tournament stage, 10 teams, including the automatically qualified host country, compete for the title at venues in the host country for a month. 20 teams took part in 11 editions of the tournament, ten teams took part in the last tournament in 2019. Australia have won the tournament five times, India and the West Indies twice each, while Pakistan, Sri Lanka and England have won it once each. The best performance of the team, not in the team, was not included in the team when Kenya reached the semifinals of the tournament in 2003.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • 2007 Cricket World Cup Sport Tourists: the Caribbean Experience
    2007 Cricket World Cup Sport Tourists: The Caribbean Experience Douglas Michele Turco, Drexel University, USA, [email protected] Marlene Cox, University of Guyana, Guyana Shamir Andrew Ally, DeSales University, USA Keywords: Sport tourism, sport spectators, cricket, World Cup, Guyana Abstract Introduction The West Indies was awarded the right to host the International Cricket Council (ICC) 2007 Cricket World Cup (CWC), marking its first attempt at hosting an international sport championship. The CWC is one of the world's most viewed sporting events. As indicators of its global reach, 2007 CWC matches were televised in 200 countries to over 2.2 billion television viewers. Televised rights for the 2011 and 2015 CWC were recently sold for over $US 1.1 billion, and sponsorship rights were sold for a further US$500 million (cricinfo.com, 2007). A total of 51 one day matches were hosted by eight territories (Antigua & Barbuda, Barbados, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia and Trinidad & Tobago) over the period 13 March to 28 April 2007. Super Eight matches, essentially eight-team round robin competition, were held between 27 March and 21 April in Antigua, Bridgetown in Barbados, Providence in Guyana, and Grenada. Attendance for the entire 2007 CWC averaged 11,176 per match (www.icc-cricket.com). Aims While several studies have profiled sport tourists at international events, relatively few have involved events in developing countries, particularly in the Caribbean. The purpose of this study is to examine the consumer behaviors of tourists to the 2007 Cricket World Cup and to compare them to previous CWC visitors.

  • Role of External Factors on Outcome of a One Day International Cricket (ODI) Match and Predictive Analysis
    ISSN (Online) 2278-1021 ISSN (Print) 2319-5940 International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer and Communication Engineering Vol. 4, Issue 6, June 2015 Role of External Factors on Outcome of a One Day International Cricket (ODI) Match and Predictive Analysis Mehvish Khan1, Riddhi Shah2 Student, Information Science and Engineering, BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore, India1,2 Abstract: The outcome of a One Day International (ODI) cricket match depends on various factors. This research aims to identify the factors which play a key role in predicting the outcome of an ODI cricket match and also determine the accuracy of the prediction made using the technique of data mining. In this analysis, statistical significance for various variables which could explain the outcome of an ODI cricket match are explored. Home field advantage, winning the toss, game plan (batting first or fielding first), match type (day or day & night), competing team, venue familiarity and season in which the match is played will be key features studied for the research . For purposes of model-building, three algorithms are adopted: Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine and Naïve Bayes. Logistic regression is applied to data already obtained from previously played matches to identify which features individually or in combination with other features play a role in the prediction. SVM and Naïve Bayes Classifier are used for model training and predictive analysis. Graphical representation and confusion matrices are used to represent the various sets of models and comparative analysis is done on them. A bidding scenario is also considered to explain the decisions that can be taken after the model has been built.
