Melbourne Stars Sydney Sixers MELBOURNE STARS SYDNEY SIXERS TODAY’S MATCH This is the ninth season of the Big Bash League (BBL09). BBL08 (2018/19) comprised 56 home and away matches with each team playing the other seven twice spread over 54 days followed by two semi-finals and a final. In BBL09 the 56 home and away matches will be played over 41 days but the finals programme is longer with five teams contesting. Teams four and five will contest the elimination final, first and second will contest the qualifying final and third will play the winner of the elimination final in the semi-final. In the preliminary final the loser of the qualifying final will play the winner of the semi-final while the final will be between the winners of the qualifying final and the preliminary final. The two teams have met on 10 occasions during BBLs 01-08. All matches have been in the home and away period with the Stars winning six and the Sixers four. The Stars have won three matches at both the MCG (including one by a Super Over) and the SCG while the Sixers have won two at both locations. The Sixers have won one final (BBL 01) and been runner-up twice (BBL04 and 06) while the Stars have yet to win a final but have been runner-up twice (BBL05 and 08). The two teams have yet to meet in a semi-final. They have, however, on four occasions (BBLs 01, 03, 04 and 07), been in opposing semi-finals. PLAYER SQUADS Melbourne Stars Glenn Maxwell (captain), Hilton Cartwright, Jackson Coleman, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Ben Dunk, Seb Gotch, Peter Handscomb, Clint Hinchliffe, Sandeep Lamichhane (Nepal, Delhi Daredevils, Sylhet Sixers, Delhi Capitals, Barbados Tridents, St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and Lahore Qalandars), Nick Larkin, Nick Maddinson, Jonathan Merlo, Tom O’Connell, Lance Morris, Dale Steyn (South Africa, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Titans, Hampshire, Cape Town Blitz, Deccan Chargers and Cape Cobras), Marcus Stoinis, Daniel Worrall and Adam Zampa. The Stars: Fast bowler and aggressive lower-order bat Nathan Coulter-Nile and all-rounder Hilton Cartwright have joined the squad. South African fast bowler Dale Steyn is debuting in the BBL. In the twilight of his career he brings with him an enviable record at T20I level (201 matches, 231 wickets at 21.64) and his presence and experience should prove valuable. Leg-spinner Sandeep Lamichhane returns following a successful BBL08 season (11 wickets at 17.72). The timing of the current international season should allow the Stars’ top players to participate in most matches. Those omitted include international all-rounder Dwayne Bravo (six seasons in the BBL, 47 matches, 677 runs at 23.34 and 49 wickets at 26.37). Sydney Sixers Moises Henriques (captain), Sean Abbott, Justin Avendand, Jackson Bird, Tom Curran (England, Kolkata Night Riders, Surrey, Tshwane Spartans (South African franchise)), Ben Dwarshuis, Jack Edwards, Mickey Edwards, Daniel Fallins, Daniel Hughes, Nathan Lyon, Stephen O’Keefe, Josh Philippe, Lloyd Pope, Jordan Silk, Steve Smith, Henry Thornton, James Vince (England, Hampshire, Auckland, Multan Sultans, Paarl Rocks, Karachi Kings). The Sixers: Steve Smith is an outstanding addition to the squad. His availability however, and that of Lyon, could be affected by Australia’s international commitments during parts of January. The two overseas players are again England’s Tom Curran and James Vince. The 19 year-old all-rounder Curran is returning after a successful BBL08 (185 runs, 20 wickets) as is his team-mate James Vince who topped the batting averages (44.83) in BBL08. Two long-term mainstays of the Sixers – Moises Henriques (68 matches, 1478 runs at 27.9 with a strike rate of 126.8) and Sean Abbott (55 matches, 75 wickets at 21.03) are expected to again be key contributors.

Player of the match: Glenn Maxwell BRAD HODGE: A career reviewed With the establishment of the BBL in 2011/12, MCC player Brad Hodge was recruited by the Melbourne Renegades. In 2012/13 he moved to the MCG-based Stars (pictured left) where he played two BBL seasons before heading to Adelaide and playing with the Strikers from 2014/15 through to 2016/17 – captaining the club in his last season there. In 2017/18 he played his final BBL season with his original BBL franchise, the Renegades. Hodge, a free-flowing right-hand batsman who played strokes to all parts of the field played 50 BBL matches, making 1412 runs at 42.79 with a strike rate of 134.35. Hodge was born in Melbourne in 1974 and was selected at first-class level for Victoria in 1993. In a career spanning 17 years he became Victoria’s highest-ever run-scorer in the Sheffield Shield with 10,474 runs in 140 matches at an average of 45.34 with a highest score of 286 not out. Two other batsmen Darren Lehmann and Jamie Siddons scored more Shield runs but both played for South Australia as well as Victoria. Hodge played six Tests for Australia between 2005 and 2008; scoring 503 runs at an average of 55.88 with a highest score of 203 not out against South Africa in Perth. In 2009 he retired from first-class cricket to concentrate on the shorter versions of the game. At career’s end he had played 25 ODIs and 15 T20Is. Hodge was considered unlucky to not have played more often for his country. .

  • 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.

  • 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.
