  • 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.

In 2012 he made his Twenty20 debut in 2012 in the KFC Big Bash League but it was the 2013- 14 tournament where Gannon announced himself and became the tournaments leading wicket taker for that season combining pace at the top of the order with slow-ball varieties at the tail of the innings.

  • AMICUS Newsletter
    AMICUS MAY 2019 Vol 46 No 2 Journal of the B S H S Past Students’ Association Inc. HERITAGE LISTING Brisbane State High School is a place that satisfies numerous criteria of the Queensland Heritage Act 1992. With its core built in 1864 and opened in 1865 as the South Brisbane Primary School, Block “H” was the South Brisbane Intermediate School from 1929 to 1953. Block “H” was transferred to Brisbane State High School in 1964 and was added to the Queensland Heritage Register in 1994. In November 2018 the Red Brick Building, Block “A” and three significant fig trees on the Merivale Campus alias The Farm were added to the Heritage Register. The Statement of Significance states: “Block “A”, (1925) the first purpose-built state high school built in Brisbane, is one of the earliest schools in Queensland not attached to a technical college. It illustrates the Queensland Government’s commitment to state-provided secondary education. Block “A” is an excellent, intact example of an Urban Brick School Building designed by the Department of Public Works (DPW). It is important in demonstrating the principal charac- teristics of this type, which include: a handsome edifice standing in a prominent location; symmetrical two-storey form of classrooms and teachers rooms above an understorey of open play spaces; a linear layout of the main floors with rooms accessed by corridors; loadbearing masonry construction; prominent projecting central entrance bay; and a high standard of design to provide superior educational environments that focus on abundant natural light and ventilation. It demonstrates the use of stylistic features of its era, through its roof form, joinery and decorative treatment.

  • Sussex CCC Vs Australia a Tourist Match Arundel Castle Cricket Ground, Arundel Sunday 7Th – Wednesday 11Th July 2019
    Sussex CCC vs Australia A Tourist Match Arundel Castle Cricket Ground, Arundel Sunday 7th – Wednesday 11th July 2019 Day One Late bursts from James Pattinson and Michael Neser seized the initiative for Australia 'A' on the first day of their first-class match against Sussex at Arundel Castle. Sussex won the toss and batted after persistent drizzle prevented play from starting until just after 3.30pm. The home side made a positive start with Phil Salt (37) and Varun Chopra (30) putting on an opening stand of 69 inside 14 overs. After the pair departed to Jackson Bird and Pattinson in consecutive overs, Luke Wells and Laurie Evans then combined to take Sussex to 112 for 2 with six overs of the day remaining. What had looked like being a solid start to the match was rocked, however, with three wickets falling for just six runs. First, Neser nipped one past Evans' outside edge and knocked back his off stump. Three overs later and Pattinson - with 70 wickets in 17 Test matches behind him - beat Wells between bat and pad with the same end result. Sussex debutant, Aneesh Kapil then fended a rising Pattinson delivery to Marcus Harry in the gully, leaving Delray Rawlins and nightwatchman to see their side through to the close on 118 for 5. Day Two Delray Rawlins made the fourth century of his first-class career before Australia 'A' made Sussex's bowlers toil on day two of the tourist match at Arundel Castle. Resuming on his overnight score of five not out, Rawlins' knock was a classy affair, made all the more impressive by the fact it was scored against an Australian bowling attack boasting 277 Test match wickets.
