It is a vital format for Cricket Australia in its objective of Cricket being “Australia’s favourite sport – a sport for all Australian’s”. A key pillar of the Australian cricket strategy is to “Produce the best teams, players and officials in the world” with the ambition of being #1 in all formats of the game for both males and females and develop teams and players that inspire the nation. The respective Open Men’s and Open Women’s indoor cricket teams are both currently ranked # 1 in the world with both teams having never lost a World Cup event (Men – all 9 World Cup events since 1995 and Women – all 8 World Cup events since 1998). All four junior teams also won their respective divisions at the recent WICF Junior World Series held in Brisbane in Sept/Oct 2015 (Under 18 Boys, Under 18 Girls, Under 16 Boys & Under 14 Boys). Indoor Cricket has been played by some of Australia’s best outdoor cricketers as part of their pathway to elite cricket – including Steve & Mark Waugh, Ricky Ponting, Michael Clarke, Stephen Smith, Aaron Finch, Ryan Harris, Brad Haddin, Belinda Clark, Jess Jonassen, Sarah Coyte, Kristen Beams etc. Indoor cricket is firmly placed within the Cricket Australia - Australian Cricket Pathway and is receiving increasing levels of support from Cricket Australia and State Associations to ensure its ongoing success as a vital format of the game.

  • 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.

  • Anuj at the 2009 Indoor Cricket World Cup in Australia
    The ICCA Cricket Club My 2009 Indoor Cricket World Cup Journey To Australia Selection I will fondly remember that day in April when I received a call informing me of my selection for the England U16 indoor cricket squad to play in the forthcoming World Cup tournament in Australia in October 2009. Mike Gatting had made the squad announcements at the Bristol training centre but not confident of selection, I did not attend this event! Having played indoor cricket from the age of 8, I was confident of my abilities but when I saw those big lads at the trials, I thought I had made a mistake. Of course I was overwhelmed and proud to have made it to the initial squad. The task now was to make it to the final squad of 12 players for the tournament. Preparation Our pre-tournament training was mostly based in Bristol over a period of six months. This involved rigorous fitness training as well as honing the skills of playing competitive indoor cricket matches. On a few occasions we played against the U19s and the men’s teams to toughen our approach. Indoor cricket was invented in Australia where they have over a hundred centres compared to our six! Needless to say, the international level of competition was expected to be very strong. This is the fastest format of the game and is gradually gaining popularity in all major Test playing countries. The ECB is taking control over the game from this year and it is anticipated that more quality facilities will be available throughout the country in the coming years.
