  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • 10072 Bob Laptop Woolmer and Eddie Desktop Barlow
    10072 Bob Laptop Woolmer and Eddie Desktop Barlow Have you heard of Bob Woolmer, the former coach of South African cricket team? Unlike other conventional coaches, Woolmer relies on his laptop computer for storing and analyzing information on players, selecting team, planning match strategy etc. Since his laptop is his constant companion, people call him Bob Laptop Woolmer. Having seen Woolmer in action during World Cup ’99, the BCB (Bangladesh Cricket Board) officials sacked Gordon Abacus Greenidge (he was not willing to use computers) and decided to appoint someone as charismatic as Woolmer for coaching Bangladesh cricket team. So, Eddie Barlow was appointed as the new coach. They say that he is no less than Bob Woolmer with his computer. Then why don’t you ever see him with his laptop? That is because he doesn’t have one! Actually, he has a desktop PC, and he loves his computer so much that people call him Eddie Desktop Barlow. Now, to select Bangladesh national team for the next World Cup, Barlow has asked BCB to call a number of players to BKSP camp, so that he can minutely observe them before selection. Accordingly, BCB invites around 100 players to join BKSP camp. Barlow’s strategy for selecting the best team is as follows. He will observe each player’s batting, bowling and fielding capabilities individually, and each player will have three individual scores in these three aspects (batting, bowling and fielding). He will store each player’s scores in his hard disk. After he has scored all the players in this way, he will use his computer to select the best combination.

  • A Multidisciplinary Examination of Fast Bowling Talent Development in Cricket
    A MULTIDISCIPLINARY EXAMINATION OF FAST BOWLING TALENT DEVELOPMENT IN CRICKET Elissa Jane Phillips BPhEd & MSc (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Human Movement Studies Faculty of Health Queensland University of Technology 2011 ii Keywords Biomechanics, cricket, dynamical systems theory, degeneracy, expertise, fast bowling, skill acquisition, metastability, multidisciplinary, talent development, variability. iii iv Abstract Research on expertise, talent identification and development has tended to be mono-disciplinary, typically adopting geno-centric or environmentalist positions, with an overriding focus on operational issues. In this thesis, the validity of dualist positions on sport expertise is evaluated. It is argued that, to advance understanding of expertise and talent development, a shift towards a multidisciplinary and integrative science focus is necessary, along with the development of a comprehensive multidisciplinary theoretical rationale. Dynamical systems theory is utilised as a multidisciplinary theoretical rationale for the succession of studies, capturing how multiple interacting constraints can shape the development of expert performers. Phase I of the research examines experiential knowledge of coaches and players on the development of fast bowling talent utilising qualitative research methodology. It provides insights into the developmental histories of expert fast bowlers, as well as coaching philosophies on the constraints of fast bowling expertise. Results suggest talent development programmes should eschew the notion of common optimal performance models and emphasize the individual nature of pathways to expertise. Coaching and talent development programmes should identify the range of interacting constraints that impinge on the performance potential of individual athletes, rather than evaluating current performance on physical tests referenced to group norms.

  • 2011-2012 CSA Annual Report and Financial Statement
    ANNUAL REPORT 2011/12 SHAPING TOMORROW We live in the most exciting era of sporting development. A time when full contact sport no longer holds centre stage. It is a passage of time when the art of sport is appreciated over the physicality of competition. Today, latent skills and blossoming talent have a place amongst our youth and the generations to come. It is now the subtle brilliance of deftness, the art of touch, mastery of stroke and pure strategic guile that has turned cricket into the sport of the future. Today cricket is the stage for mental agility and peak physical condition. It is purity of both mind and spirit that produces champions. The re-invention of cricket globally has rejuvenated a desire to master the ultimate game. A sense of camaraderie pursued by both men and women alike. It’s now a passion for gamesmanship, integrity, honesty and fair play. It is a game that can be embraced and played or supported by everyone. We can’t undo the past, but we can shape the future. We do what we do today in cricket, for what will happen TOMORROW.
