  • The Swing of a Cricket Ball
    SCIENCE BEHIND REVERSE SWING C.P.VINOD CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory Pune BACKGROUND INFORMATION • Swing bowling is a skill in cricket that bowlers use to get a batsmen out. • It involves bowling a ball in such a way that it curves or ‘swings’ in the air. • The process that causes this ball to swing can be explained through aerodynamics. Dynamics is the study of the cause of the motion and changes in motion Aerodynamics is a branch of Dynamics which studies the motion of air particularly when it interacts with a moving object There are basically four factors that govern swing of the cricket ball: Seam Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Speed Bowling Action Seam of cricket ball Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Cricket ball is made from a core of cork, which is layered with tightly wound string, and covered by a leather case with a slightly raised sewn seam Dimensions- Weight: 155.9 and 163.0 g 224 and 229 mm in circumference Speed Fast bowler between 130 to 160 KPH THE BOUNDARY LAYER • When a sphere travels through air, the air will be forced to negotiate a path around the ball • The Boundary Layer is defined as the small layer of air that is in contact with the surface of a projectile as it moves through the air • Initially the air that hits the front of the ball will stick to the ball and accelerate in order to obtain the balls velocity. • In doing so it applies pressure (Force) in the opposite direction to the balls velocity by NIII Law, this is known as a Drag Force.

  • Sunday August 7, 2011
    Sunday August 7, 2011 Bhanuka's younger brother Shanuka collecting the coveted prize on his behalf from Chief guest Sidath Wettimuny riday, August 5 was a day the schoolboy cricketers of Sri Lanka will long remember. They were rewarded for their hard and untiring efforts for the F2010 season. Bata and the Sunday Times together with officials of the Sri Lanka School Cricket Association, Association of Cricket Umpires and top cricketers of yesteryear and made a grand effort to pick and choose the best schoolboy cricketers and teams. These young cricketers will undoubtedly contribute to the national stream in years to come. The grand night, the awards ceremo- ny, of the 32nd Bata-the Sunday Times Schoolboy Cricketer of the Year kicked off on Friday at the BMICH in Colombo with the distinguished patronage of former national cricketer and present interim committee member of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC), Sidath Wettimuny as the chief guest. Among other invitees were Mr. and Mrs. Cesar Panduro (CEO of Bata), Hemaka Amarasuriya (Director, Bata), Brendon Kuruppu, Jayantha Seneviratne, Carlton Bernadus, Charith Senanayake and Hatta Tutuko (CFO, Bata). After the welcome speech from CEO of Bata, Cesar Panduro, Carlton Bernadus who is the manager of School Cricket Development at SLC made a short speech attributing the importance of recognizing the booming cricketing tal- ents in the country. But the center of all was chief guest, Sidath Wettimuny’s oration which had many thought provoking sights for young cricketers, the coaches and in particu- lar the parents. Wettimuny credited the present day cricketers who work hard to accomplish their goals going along with modern day technology.

  • Contributions to an Anthropological Approach to the Cultural Adaptation of Migrant Agents
    Contributions to an Anthropological Approach to the Cultural Adaptation of Migrant Agents Rafael Heitor Bordini A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London. Department of Computer Science University College London 1999 Abstract This thesis proposes the use of Cultural Anthropology as a source of inspiration for solutions to the problem of adaptation of autonomous, intelligent, computational agents that migrate to societies of agents with distinctive features from the ones of the society where those agents were originally conceived. This has implications for interoperation of disparate Multi-Agent Systems. In particular, the cognitive approach to anthropology is argued to be a suitable theoretical foun­ dation for this topic. Fieldwork practice in social anthropology is also indicated as an useful source of ideas. A pragmatic theory of intensionality is incorporated in this anthropological approach, resulting in a mechanism that allows agents to ascribe intensional ontologies of terms to societies that use unfamiliar means of communication; also, taxonomical relations among the terms in such ontologies can be retrieved, by means of a process inspired by the counterpart activity of ethnographers. This is presented using the Z notation for formal specification of systems, and illustrated on a set of terms from the game of cricket. Subsequently, a simulation of a game of cricket is described where one of the players is unfamiliar with the game, and therefore needs to learn the game by observing the other players. A reasonable behaviour for such a player is obtained, and the simulation offers grounds for further anthropologically-based studies.

Substitutes and runners (a) If the umpires are satisfied that a player has been injured or become ill after the nomination of the players, they shall allow that player to have (i) a substitute acting instead of him in the field. (ii) a runner when batting. Any injury or illness that occurs at any time after the nomination of the players until the conclusion of the match shall be allowable, irrespective of whether play is in progress or not. (b) The umpires shall have discretion, for other wholly acceptable reasons, to allow a substitute for a fielder, or a runner for a batsman, at the start of the match or at any subsequent time (c) A player wishing to change his shirt, boots, etc. must leave the field to do so. No substitute shall be allowed for him. 2. Objection to substitutes The opposing captain shall have no right of objection to any player acting as a substitute on the field, nor as to where the substitute shall field.

  • Cricket Injuries
    CRICKET INJURIES Cricket can lead to injuries similar to those seen in other sports which involve running, throwing or being hit by a hard object. However, there are some injuries to look out for especially in cricket players. Low Back Injuries A pace bowler can develop a stress fracture in the back. This can develop in the area of the vertebra called the pars interarticularis (“pars”) in players aged 12- 21. Parsstress fractures are thought to be caused by repetitive hyper-extension and rotation of the spine that can occur in fast bowling. The most common site is at the level of the 5th lumbar vertebra (L5). Risk Factors Factors in bowling technique that are thought to increase the risk of getting a pars stress fracture are: • Posture of the shoulders and hips when the back foot hits the ground: completely side-on and semi-open bowling actions are the safest. A mixed action (hips side-on and shoulders front-on or vice versa) increases the risk of injury. Interestingly, recent research is suggesting the completely front-on action may be unsafe as rotation of the spine tends to occur in the action following back foot impact. Up until now, front-on was thought to be the safest. • Change in the alignment of the shoulders or of the hips during the delivery stride. • Extended front knee at front foot contact with the ground. • Higher ball release height. The other general risk factor for injuries in bowlers is high bowling workload: consecutive days bowling and high number of bowling sessions per week.

    Proceedings Bowling Performance Assessed with a Smart Cricket Ball: A Novel Way of Profiling Bowlers † Franz Konstantin Fuss 1,*, Batdelger Doljin 1 and René E. D. Ferdinands 2 1 Smart Products Engineering Program, Centre for Design Innovation, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne 3122, Australia; [email protected] 2 Department of Exercise and Sports Science, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Sydney, Sydney 2141, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-3-9214-6882 † Presented at the 13th conference of the International Sports Engineering Association, Online, 22–26 June 2020. Published: 15 June 2020 Abstract: Profiling of spin bowlers is currently based on the assessment of translational velocity and spin rate (angular velocity). If two spin bowlers impart the same spin rate on the ball, but bowler A generates more spin rate than bowler B, then bowler A has a higher chance to be drafted, although bowler B has the potential to achieve the same spin rate, if the losses are minimized (e.g., by optimizing the bowler’s kinematics through training). We used a smart cricket ball for determining the spin rate and torque imparted on the ball at a high sampling frequency. The ratio of peak torque to maximum spin rate times 100 was used for determining the ‘spin bowling potential’. A ratio of greater than 1 has more potential to improve the spin rate. The spin bowling potential ranged from 0.77 to 1.42. Comparatively, the bowling potential in fast bowlers ranged from 1.46 to 1.95. Keywords: cricket; smart cricket ball; profiling; performance; skill; spin rate; torque; bowling potential 1.

Type the abstract of the document here. The abstract is typically a short summary of the contents of the document.] Edinburgh Cricket Club Junior Season Report 2015-2016 In the past 12 months Edinburgh Cricket Club has grown to become the second largest cricket club in Victoria. This has come about in part due to A LOOK a demographic surge in area but also, we like to think, because the Burra BACK AT is a great place for players of all ages to enjoy cricket. The number of junior SEASON teams has doubled in the past 3 years from 8 teams in season 2012-13 to 16 2015-2016 teams in 2015-16. The most exciting development this season has been the advent of our under 15 girls’ team. Women’s cricket at the Burra has been up and running for over a decade now with the woman this year taking out the WCCC North West Premiership. This season our number one priority was getting a girls’ team up and running. Slowly over the preseason numbers gathered and we just had enough players for the start of the ECA Anna Lanning Spirit competition, which runs on a Wednesday evening. Despite their ages ranging from 8 to 13, the girls quickly bonded into a team and before long were playing some great cricket. Word spread and numbers grew over the season so that next season we hope to have 2 teams.
