  • Beware Milestones
    DECIDE: How to Manage the Risk in Your Decision Making Beware milestones Having convinced you to improve your measurement of what really matters in your organisation so that you can make better decisions, I must provide a word of caution. Sometimes when we introduce new measures we actually hurt decision making. Take the effect that milestones have on people. Milestones as the name infers are solid markers of progress on a journey. You have either made the milestone or you have fallen short. There is no better example of the effect of milestones on decision making than from sport. Take the game of cricket. If you don’t know cricket all you need to focus in on is one number, 100. That number represents a century of runs by a batsman in one innings and is a massive milestone. Careers are judged on the number of centuries a batsman scores. A batsman plays the game to score runs by hitting a ball sent toward him at varying speeds of up to 100.2 miles per hour (161.3 kilometres per hour) by a bowler from 22 yards (20 metres) away. The 100.2 mph delivery, officially the fastest ball ever recorded, was delivered by Shoaib Akhtar of Pakistan. Shoaib was nicknamed the Rawalpindi Express! Needless to say, scoring runs is not dead easy. A great batting average in cricket at the highest levels is 40 plus and you are among the elite when you have an average over 50. Then there is Australia’s great Don Bradman who had an average of 99.94 with his next nearest rivals being South Africa’s Graeme Pollock with 60.97 and England’s Herb Sutcliffe with 60.63.

  • Demographics, Wealth, and Global Imbalances in the Twenty-First Century
    Demographics, Wealth, and Global Imbalances in the Twenty-First Century § Adrien Auclert∗ Hannes Malmbergy Frédéric Martenetz Matthew Rognlie August 2021 Abstract We use a sufficient statistic approach to quantify the general equilibrium effects of population aging on wealth accumulation, expected asset returns, and global im- balances. Combining population forecasts with household survey data from 25 coun- tries, we measure the compositional effect of aging: how a changing age distribution affects wealth-to-GDP, holding the age profiles of assets and labor income fixed. In a baseline overlapping generations model this statistic, in conjunction with cross- sectional information and two standard macro parameters, pins down general equi- librium outcomes. Since the compositional effect is positive, large, and heterogeneous across countries, our model predicts that population aging will increase wealth-to- GDP ratios, lower asset returns, and widen global imbalances through the twenty-first century. These conclusions extend to a richer model in which bequests, individual savings, and the tax-and-transfer system all respond to demographic change. ∗Stanford University, NBER and CEPR.

  • DENNIS AMISS Dennis Played in 50 Tests Averaging Over 46 Scoring 11
    DENNIS AMISS Dennis played in 50 Tests averaging over 46 scoring 11 centuries with 262* being his highest score. In ODI’s he averaged 47 with 137 his top score. In all First Class cricket he scored over 43000 runs at an average of 43 and is on the elite list of players who have scored a century of 100’s. He also took 18 wickets. Dennis played his first game for Warwickshire in July, 1960 against Surrey at the Oval. He did not bat. In fact he watched Horner and Ibadulla share an unbroken partnership of 377 for the first wicket. In the next few years he learnt a lot about the game from Tiger Smith, Tom Dollery, and Derief Taylor, whose work as a coach has gained him a legendary reputation at Edgbaston. From 1966 he became an established player in the number three position, and was easily top of the Warwickshire averages, at 54.78 During that season Amiss played in three Test matches but success eluded him. The Australians came over in 1968, and he played in the first Test at Old Trafford. He had an unhappy game, and bagged a pair The disaster at Old Trafford may well have affected his confidence. The period from 1969 until mid-June 1972 was one of comparatively modest achievement. The summer of 1972 was a turning point for Dennis. Alan Smith, the Warwickshire captain, had six contenders for the five places available for specialist batsmen. Amiss, unable to strike form in the early weeks of the season, had to be left out of the side.

  • Cobbling Together the Dream Indian Eleven
    COBBLING TOGETHER THE DREAM INDIAN ELEVEN Whenever the five selectors, often dubbed as the five wise men with the onerous responsibility of cobbling together the best players comprising India’s test cricket team, sit together to pick the team they feel the heat of the country’s collective gaze resting on them. Choosing India’s cricket team is one of the most difficult tasks as the final squad is subjected to intense scrutiny by anybody and everybody. Generally the point veers round to questions such as why batsman A was not picked or bowler B was dropped from the team. That also makes it a very pleasurable hobby for followers of the game who have their own views as to who should make the final 15 or 16 when the team is preparing to leave our shores on an away visit or gearing up to face an opposition on a tour of our country. Arm chair critics apart, sports writers find it an enjoyable professional duty when they sit down to select their own team as newspapers speculate on the composition of the squad pointing out why somebody should be in the team at the expense of another. The reports generally appear on the sports pages on the morning of the team selection. This has been a hobby with this writer for over four decades now and once the team is announced, you are either vindicated or amused. And when the player, who was not in your frame goes on to play a stellar role for the country, you inwardly congratulate the selectors for their foresight and knowledge.

  • The Natwest Series 2001
    The NatWest Series 2001 CONTENTS Saturday23June 2 Match review – Australia v England 6 Regulations, umpires & 2002 fixtures 3&4 Final preview – Australia v Pakistan 7 2000 NatWest Series results & One day Final act of a 5 2001 fixtures, results & averages records thrilling series AUSTRALIA and Pakistan are both in superb form as they prepare to bring the curtain down on an eventful tournament having both won their last group games. Pakistan claimed the honours in the dress rehearsal for the final with a memo- rable victory over the world champions in a dramatic day/night encounter at Trent Bridge on Tuesday. The game lived up to its billing right from the onset as Saeed Anwar and Saleem Elahi tore into the Australia attack. Elahi was in particularly impressive form, blast- ing 79 from 91 balls as Pakistan plundered 290 from their 50 overs. But, never wanting to be outdone, the Australians responded in fine style with Adam Gilchrist attacking the Pakistan bowling with equal relish. The wicketkeep- er sensationally raced to his 20th one-day international half-century in just 29 balls on his way to a quick-fire 70. Once Saqlain Mushtaq had ended his 44-ball knock however, skipper Waqar Younis stepped up to take the game by the scruff of the neck. The pace star is bowling as well as he has done in years as his side come to the end of their tour of England and his figures of six for 59 fully deserved the man of the match award and to take his side to victory.

  • 2007 Cricket World Cup Sport Tourists: the Caribbean Experience
    2007 Cricket World Cup Sport Tourists: The Caribbean Experience Douglas Michele Turco, Drexel University, USA, [email protected] Marlene Cox, University of Guyana, Guyana Shamir Andrew Ally, DeSales University, USA Keywords: Sport tourism, sport spectators, cricket, World Cup, Guyana Abstract Introduction The West Indies was awarded the right to host the International Cricket Council (ICC) 2007 Cricket World Cup (CWC), marking its first attempt at hosting an international sport championship. The CWC is one of the world's most viewed sporting events. As indicators of its global reach, 2007 CWC matches were televised in 200 countries to over 2.2 billion television viewers. Televised rights for the 2011 and 2015 CWC were recently sold for over $US 1.1 billion, and sponsorship rights were sold for a further US$500 million (cricinfo.com, 2007). A total of 51 one day matches were hosted by eight territories (Antigua & Barbuda, Barbados, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia and Trinidad & Tobago) over the period 13 March to 28 April 2007. Super Eight matches, essentially eight-team round robin competition, were held between 27 March and 21 April in Antigua, Bridgetown in Barbados, Providence in Guyana, and Grenada. Attendance for the entire 2007 CWC averaged 11,176 per match (www.icc-cricket.com). Aims While several studies have profiled sport tourists at international events, relatively few have involved events in developing countries, particularly in the Caribbean. The purpose of this study is to examine the consumer behaviors of tourists to the 2007 Cricket World Cup and to compare them to previous CWC visitors.
