  • The Adelaide Oval SMA Ltd (AOSMA) Is Pleased to Provide Its Written Submission to the Select Committee on the Redevelopment of Adelaide Oval
    ^val 31 January 2019 Leslie Guy Secretary to the Committee C/- Parliament House GPO Box 572 Adelaide 5001 By email: [email protected] Dear Ms Guy, The Adelaide Oval SMA Ltd (AOSMA) is pleased to provide its written submission to the Select Committee on the Redevelopment of Adelaide Oval. In doing so, we provide the following context we believe will be of significant value to the members of the Committee. In reviewing the first five years of operations of the redeveloped Adelaide Oval, it is important to understand the events that led to the formation of AOSMA and the creation of the eventual management model that was approved by Cabinet in 2011. AOSMA is a joint venture company of the two entities responsible for growing and developing the codes of cricket and football in South Australia - the South Australian Cricket Association (SACA) and the South Australian National Football League (SANFL). Both are not-for-profit organisations that, historically, derived the bulk of their revenues from staging events at their respective grounds-Adelaide Oval and Football Park (AAMI Stadium). This income was critical to their respective abilities to fund, manage and support everything from junior participation to elite level talent development, clubs and competitions. In 2009, the then Labor Government offered one chance at transformational change. However, it put the onus of proving the incredibly complex business case of bringing football and cricket together at a redeveloped Adelaide Oval on SACA and SANFL. Then-and only then-would the necessary funding for the project be provided. While this created an opportunity for cricket and football to help shape their futures, it was also a task that necessitated both organisations to make sacrifices in meeting the Government's demands.

So, it will take some time for us to work through what’s there, what’s missing, and how to compare across Censuses for those LGAs with changed boundaries.

  • 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.

The facility is located in Sydney’s suburb of Homebush, in the middle of the Olympic Park of the Australian city. When it was inaugurated, due to its 110,000 seats, it immediately conquered the “largest Olympic stadium in the world” title and at the same time it is the largest in Australia. The structure was designed and built with the intent of respecting demanding environmental conditions: compared to other Olympic stadiums (Athens and Beijing), as an example, less steel was used. The construction was started in September 1996 and completed just two and a half years later: on March 6, 1999, Sydney’s Olympic Stadium saw its first sport event: two rugby13 matches watched by 104,583 spectators. From October 2001 to October 2003, Stadium Australia was refurbished to make it the only stadium in the world capable of hosting five different professional sports: Rugby13 league, Rugby15 (Union), Australian Football, Soccer and Cricket.
