  • 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.

  • STEVE WAUGH Published 16.3.17 It Was Test Match Cricket That You Couldn't Take Your Eyes Off It Was Predictable but Still Disa
    STEVE WAUGH Published 16.3.17 It was Test match cricket that you couldn’t take your eyes off It was predictable but still disappointing that a brilliant Test match in which two sides had to draw upon all their reserves of mental and physical toughness in an old fashioned dogfight that saw conflict, confrontation, skill and tension before a remarkable comeback from the home, was somewhat forgotten in the aftermath of the DRS controversy. That said, I could understand the talk, the speculation and the spin each expert gave on what transpired in Bangalore. After all, the captains involved are two of the most popular and revered figures in the game today. Hopefully, the incident is behind both teams and not still smouldering as they ready themselves for the third Test in Ranchi. I was in Bangalore to witness the first three days of the Test and it was an engrossing game on a difficult pitch where batsmen could get runs if they punished the loose balls and capitalised on moments of good fortune. There was more than enough variable bounce to keep the quick bowlers interested and prodigious turn at times to enable the spinners to dominate. Both teams had their opportunities to seize the momentum but chasing 150 or more in the fourth innings was always going to be a demanding examination for the Australians particularly with Ashwin and Jadeja ready to restrict and then ultimately strangle as would an anaconda its prey. Looking ahead, Australia are in Ranchi for the venue’s debut Test without their strike bowler Mitchell Starc.
