Cricket pitches that are constructed in Pakistan are slow and dead relative to fast pitches of other countries. Pakistan’s batsmen who are accustomed to play on slow pitches of Pakistan sometimes feel it challenging while playing on fast pitches of other countries. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to develop fast and bouncy pitches in Pakistan so that our batsmen may not face any hindrance out there on any fast pitch. For this purpose, Nandipur soil also known as The Black soil is used because this soil is rich in clay content and clay is the main factor that yields hardness to the pitch and consequently fast speed and bounce are acquired 2 Sample pitches of 5 X 5 ft. are prepared having varied amount of silt and clay content and maintained according to prescribed standards of Pakistan Cricket Board(PCB). A number of parameters including the hardness, ball rebound, pace and the spin of each pitch are determined over a period of time to account for the effect of aging.

  • Race and Cricket: the West Indies and England At
    RACE AND CRICKET: THE WEST INDIES AND ENGLAND AT LORD’S, 1963 by HAROLD RICHARD HERBERT HARRIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2011 Copyright © by Harold Harris 2011 All Rights Reserved To Romelee, Chamie and Audie ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My journey began in Antigua, West Indies where I played cricket as a boy on the small acreage owned by my family. I played the game in Elementary and Secondary School, and represented The Leeward Islands’ Teachers’ Training College on its cricket team in contests against various clubs from 1964 to 1966. My playing days ended after I moved away from St Catharines, Ontario, Canada, where I represented Ridley Cricket Club against teams as distant as 100 miles away. The faculty at the University of Texas at Arlington has been a source of inspiration to me during my tenure there. Alusine Jalloh, my Dissertation Committee Chairman, challenged me to look beyond my pre-set Master’s Degree horizon during our initial conversation in 2000. He has been inspirational, conscientious and instructive; qualities that helped set a pattern for my own discipline. I am particularly indebted to him for his unwavering support which was indispensable to the inclusion of a chapter, which I authored, in The United States and West Africa: Interactions and Relations , which was published in 2008; and I am very grateful to Stephen Reinhardt for suggesting the sport of cricket as an area of study for my dissertation.

  • Renovating Your Wicket a Guide to Pre-Season Renovation of a Cricket Pitch Square in Victoria Why Do We Renovate?
    Renovating Your Wicket A guide to pre-season renovation of a cricket pitch square in Victoria Why Do We Renovate? We renovate a cricket pitch square to remove the build up of thatch and dead organic matter that is located on the surface and the top layer of the clay profile along with any other undesirable material that may enter the profile over the off season. This thins out the runners (stolons) of the couch grass along with allowing the keying of the top dress into the profile which prevents layering. Scarifying also ensures that layering does not occur by binding the new black clay to the existing profile directly. The scarifying and top dress help to level out the cricket square where there maybe highs or lows. Removing the dead organic matter also assists in preventing the potential habitat for pests and diseases, while keeping the desirable elements of an Australian pitch (pace and bounce). General Machinery & Equipment Requirements Roller Growth Mat (desirable) Cylinder Mower Trailer or ute (to remove Rotary Mower debris/organic matter) Yard Vacuum (optional) Spiked roller (optional) Scarifier Leaf Blower (optional) Lawn Leveller Large Levelling Frame General tools (shovel, leaf rake, wheel barrow etc.) Fertiliser spreader Material Requirements Processed Black Clay – Work on approximately .4 of a cubic metre per pitch. A five wicket block requires 2 cubic metres (two bulka bags of soil) which equates to a 5mm top dress. Desirable for the clay to be processed at less than 5mm Fertiliser – Spring start fertiliser granular (early September) or all season fertiliser (late September/October) Rye Grass Seed - (optional) First Step Prior to Commencing Work Assess the wicket damage through any off season sport, weather and general traffic.
